You have multiple choices of San Francisco Bay tours, cruises and sails. But one stands out from all others as being completely unique.....in all the right ways!
Bay Lights Charters has just the boat and just the experience for you.
Here are the Top 5 ways we can create a day on the Bay for you, your guests or your employees that will make lifetime memories:
Gas Light herself and her history.
Gas Light, our 72’ schooner Tall Ship was conceived right here in San Francisco Bay in the quaint seafaring town of Sausalito. Her history relates directly with her heritage . She is a living replica of an actual scow schooner that plied the waters of the Bay 160 years ago.
A modern hull and safety systems.
What could be better? To charter a classic sailing vessel built of modern materials for up to 50 passengers that also has the look and feel of an old sailing ship. Your safety is our utmost concern. You might feel as through you are sailing the waters of a century and a half ago, but you have the present day assurance that the boat and her crew meet the highest levels of US Coast Guard certification for carrying passengers for hire.
You and your guests are welcome to participate! Whether you’re here for corporate team building or just an outing to see the sights, Gas Light can provide a hands-on way to experience the way classic Tall Ships were sailed in the 18th and 19th centuries. Help our crew hoist away at the halyards and raise the sails. Want to take the wheel? Ask our captain for a turn to have bragging rights amongst your fellow “sailors”.
Gas Light’s breathtaking interior. There are dozens of choices for Bay cruises and tours that cram you and your guests into sparse and sometimes overtly glitzy and “cheesy “ interior spaces on board their boats. Not the case with Gas Light! Her interior is beautiful and spacious with warm white cedar and mahogany wood trim everywhere. The full bar is enjoyed with a 15 foot long solid varnished mahogany bar table. Comfort everywhere you look! Her open below decks space is huge with enough room for all.
You will be under-sail while viewing the Bays visual delights.
When the sails are hoisted and the Bay breezes catch them it is truly magical! You can putt around the Bay in an old fishing tub, or a shiny power yacht, however to sail the Bay with the engine off and the water gurgling past is your very best experience of this beautiful place.
Gas Light is a masterpiece. A one-off vessel with a design history that predates any modern sailing ship. Why not bring your group out and let Bay Lights Charters extend to you an outing on the Bay your guests will reminisce about for many years.
