A fun afternoon on the water - Captain Doyle was a competent sailor and a gracious host. He made my wife, a non-sailor, feel comfortable and safe while enjoying the bay.

Great day on the Bay - Captain Larry made the day seamless. My pal and I aren't sailors and he made us feel super comfortable. It's also really easy to get to the boat and I have to say San Diego is the perfect place to sail. All in all a great introduction to sailing; highly recommended.

An Excellent Family Outing! - A unique way to experience San Diego, from the water! Weather was warm, breeze was gentle, and our family felt totally relaxed in the capable hands of our captain. My husband was thrilled to have the opportunity to steer for a bit, and our son loved learning about the boat and seeing the military vessels up close. Highly recommend!!!

A relaxing and pleasant afternoon's sailing adventure - What a beautiful day on the water! Perfect weather, a well-equipped sailboat expertly navigated - we had a great time. Lots to see on the water, there was a yacht race, all manner of watercraft from jet-skis to dingies to superyachts to freighters. The Captain was friendly and knowledgeable and seemed to really know his stuff, sailing-wise. Very safe.
