Great sailing experience for first timers! - It was a fun interactive sailing experience where we learned a lot and even got to learn the nuances of sailing hands on. Will was a funny and knowledgeable captain. The boat was perfect for a party of four. Highly recommended for a beautiful day on the water!

A great sailing experience! - Will (the skipper) was a great host who told engaging stories. We had an absolute blast sailing around the Bay. We ended up having the boat to ourselves as we were the only guests onboard and both of us ended up learning a lot about sailing and having fun at the same time! Highly recommend.

Exactly what I wanted from a SF Bay sailboat cruise! - I wanted to avoid going into SF to board the sailboat. Will has his slip in Saulsilito which was perfect for avoiding the GG bridge. When he took us out I was afraid he was going to just use the engine because the winds seemed "light". As we moved out of the inlet the breeze quickened and he put up the headsail and away we went! It was a perfect sail on a beautiful day. Will answered every question and was great with stories about the area and what we were seeing. We saw lots of dophins, seagulls, and seals. Will is very funny and easy to get along with. I would highly recommend this cruise to anyone who wants to see the SF Bay, from the Golden Gate Bridge to SF skyline. Thanks again Will for a beautiful cruise on your boat.

Birthday Sailing Experience - This sailing experience was a birthday gift to me, and I can't think of a better way to spend a birthday. The weather was perfect, and Will made sure this was a memorable experience. I was at the helm most of the time, and you get a real appreciation for what sailing on the bay is like. It takes some skill and practice, and I really appreciate how eager Will is to teach and share this with others. All in all, a really great birthday experience.

Amazing SF Views and Dolphin Sightings - May 10yr old son and I had an incredible time enjoying the views from the Golden Gate and Bay Bridge in San Francisco. The highlight was definitely when he spotted dolphins jumping out of the water. It was such a relaxing and memorable way to take in the beauty of San Francisco Bay. Highly recommend this experience! Captain Will made us feel safe and comfortable sailing at our pace.

Fun Times aboard the Kindred Spirit - Captain Will make sure we had an excellent time. He was friendly and had lots of stories to tell us. He stressed safety so that we didn’t take a swim in the bay and he was an awesome instructor teaching us how to pilot the boat on a somewhat windy day. We went in the afternoon, which ended up being pretty awesome because we got a combination of super sunny on the Sausalito side and pretty cloudy vistas covering San Francisco. It was incredible, deceived the pelicans flyby the saltwater spray hitting our faces and the giant tankers all adding to the majesty of the Golden Gate Bridge.

Fantastic sailing - We had a fantastic time out on the bay. I enjoy being part of a sailing experience and that's exactly what we got. If you're looking for a tour of the bay don't go here. You'll be at the helm most of the time, and with a good wind you'll be tired at the of the trip.
