Sailing and to journey across a body of water propelled only by one of nature’s fundamental forces….wind, is one of those activities. As a sailor myself and a lover of anything nautical, my first hand experiences on some of the world’s bodies of water have provided wonderful, vivid experiences in many different conditions.

The NBA All-Star weekend in February 2025 will feature numerous events happening not just in San Francisco, but around the Bay Area. When in town for the game why not get out sailing on San Francisco Bay? Join Bay Lights Charters for a memorable time out for a sunset cruise. A booze cruise with your best friends could be just what you need to make lasting memories. Feel the wind in your sails and cheers to your favorite team winning.

It’s like a bird's-eye view of San Francisco through a time machine. Over the years, highways replace avenues, world-famous stadiums rise in industrial zones and new homes grow out of the sand dunes.

The city's history is marked by several major events, including the 1848 Gold Rush, the 1906 earthquake and fire, women’s rights movement and the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake. 1969-1970s and the first nations, Native American occupation of Alcatraz for 180 days by students of UC Berkeley and San Francisco State university. Not to mention it’s impact on cargo and resources on the western front. It was an atmosphere for new innovation and entrepreneurship of all creeds, colors, cultures, backgrounds, and genders.
