“We had the most amazing time…! From beginning to end, Mitch at Passage Nautical provided us with white glove service. We had everything we needed and more for a wonderful 16th birthday party! 

“Loved the vessel! Our Captain and crew were friendly, informative and extremely professional. Managed to find nearly a dozen Humpbacks… What a great way to celebrate my 61st birthday!”

“We had so much fun! Our instructor was fantastic and incredibly experienced, and Deb did a great job getting everything arranged. We loved the whole experience and plan to charter once per month. Highly recommended. “

“I booked a charter for a photo shoot for my wine collection, the booking process was smooth sailing. Captain Steve and his wife were the nicest people you will probably meet on this earth. I will definitely book again and again we had so much fun…”

“ Another great experience on the Bay aboard Passage Nautical! We’ve taken out some of the 40-foot sailboats with their highly qualified and knowledgeable captains. On the most recent sail, our captain was so flexible and made the whole trip perfect for our group.”

“Fantastic experience, easy to book, easy to find a skipper (they do it for you), and just all-around great value.  Will be going again!”

“The best place in all of the West Coast to go to charter a boat of your dreams!! I went out with my fiancé to see if our wish to perhaps purchase one of our own was worth it, and the folks at Passage Nautical could not have been more helpful!”

Yacht Rental San Francisco

In the grand theater of life, San Francisco is a stage like no other. Cloaked in an ethereal fog and kissed by the Pacific, this city by the bay has a melody that resonates deep within the soul. But to truly experience its magnificence, one must venture beyond the shoreline, into the aquamarine wilderness aboard a yacht.

Why Rent a Yacht in San Francisco?

The San Francisco Bay, an aquatic kingdom with its own rhythm, serves as the most mesmerizing amphitheater. From a yacht, the city's iconic skyline morphs into a panoramic masterpiece, a tableau vivant frozen in time yet alive in every sense. The Golden Gate Bridge looms majestically in the distance, a monolith bearing testimony to the genius of human ingenuity. To the east, the Oakland Bay Bridge twinkles like a cosmic constellation connecting two vibrant worlds.

On the water, the cityscape unfolds in layers – its vibrance, its dynamism, the rhythm of life that pulses within. Amid the gentle rocking of the yacht, you can savor the hushed whispers of the city, away from the clamor. The dance of the dolphins, the soaring pelicans, and the occasional sea lion add a touch of enchantment that is seldom found elsewhere.

Charting a Course in San Francisco Bay: A Yacht Journey

The San Francisco Bay, a jewel nestled on the Californian coast, offers a plethora of opportunities for exploration. Setting sail on a yacht, let's journey through the distinct locales this aquatic realm has to offer.

🚢 Angel Island

Our first port of call is Angel Island, the largest natural island in the bay. A lush, mountainous outcrop cloaked in a rich tapestry of flora, Angel Island is a tantalizing world away from the city’s bustle. The island’s historical significance, including its past as an immigration station, adds a fascinating layer to its natural beauty. Anchoring offshore and exploring its hiking trails makes for a delightful day excursion.

🚢 Alcatraz Island

The ominous silhouette of Alcatraz Island is our next stop. Once home to some of America's most notorious criminals, this island is now a poignant reminder of life on the inside. While the approach from the water provides a unique perspective, stepping ashore unveils an intriguing narrative that captivates visitors.

🚢 Sausalito

Across the Golden Gate Strait from San Francisco, the picturesque waterfront town of Sausalito awaits. With its charming houses, art studios, and vibrant dining scene, Sausalito is a yacht-friendly destination that beckons with its quaint charm. From its marinas, you can watch the sunset over the cityscape, casting an ethereal glow that transforms the bay into a shimmering panorama.

🚢 The Golden Gate Bridge

No journey through the bay would be complete without sailing beneath the awe-inspiring Golden Gate Bridge. As your yacht glides under this architectural marvel, one can truly grasp its sheer magnitude and elegant symmetry. This experience, at the confluence of human ingenuity and nature’s grandeur, is a testament to the enchantment of the San Francisco Bay.

Further north from Sausalito, the quiet, upscale town of Tiburon provides an idyllic setting for relaxation. Anchoring your yacht here, you can enjoy a leisurely stroll along the waterfront, dine at sophisticated restaurants, or embark on a cycling adventure on the Paradise Loop.

🚢 Treasure Island

Despite its urban origins – it was artificially created for the 1939 Golden Gate International Exposition – Treasure Island possesses a charm all its own. Today, this man-made marvel is home to an array of wineries, eateries, and an ever-evolving arts scene. Moor your yacht at its welcoming marina and immerse yourself in the unique fusion of culture, history, and urban design.

🚢 Richmond Marina Bay

Further north along the eastern shoreline of the Bay, the Richmond Marina Bay offers an excellent location to moor and explore. Rich in wartime history, the area now invites visitors with its serene parks, trails, and vibrant dining experiences. The Rosie the Riveter/World War II Home Front National Historical Park serves as a poignant testament to the home front effort during the Second World War.

🚢 Redwood City

South of San Francisco, Redwood City with its expansive marina offers a warm welcome to yachters. Its revitalized downtown area, resplendent with palm trees, art galleries, and a variety of eateries, is well worth exploring. The city also hosts a number of outdoor events and festivals throughout the year, adding to the vibrancy of your visit.

🚢 The Farallon Islands

For those looking to venture further afield, the Farallon Islands, located 30 miles off the coast of San Francisco, present an intriguing destination. These wild, rugged islands, known collectively as California's Galapagos, are a haven for wildlife, including several species of seals, sea lions, and a myriad of bird species. Please note, however, that due to the often challenging sea conditions and the islands' protected status, access is restricted and requires appropriate planning and permissions.

Each of these destinations represents a unique facet of the San Francisco Bay, creating a mosaic of experiences that enriches our understanding of this majestic corner of the world. Aboard a yacht, we are privy to a perspective that unlocks the true essence of this region, transcending the usual confines of land-based exploration.

What to Consider When Renting a Yacht in San Francisco?

In this vast and diverse marine wilderness, choosing the right vessel is essential. And as we do in all spheres of life, we must examine our own needs and desires before embarking on this journey.

⛵ Understanding the Waters

To begin, understanding the waters is paramount. The San Francisco Bay, the largest Pacific estuary in the Americas, is a realm of contrast, much like the city it cradles. The whimsical west wind and the currents of the Golden Gate carry their own set of challenges.

The central bay is known for its steady wind, making it perfect for sailing enthusiasts. But the outer bay, where the Pacific whispers its mighty secrets, is often subject to higher winds and rougher seas. It is an adventurer's dream and requires an experienced hand.

⛵ The Journey's Purpose

Secondly, the purpose of your journey greatly influences your choice. Is this a serene exploration of the bay under the golden sun, or a thrilling adventure into the mighty Pacific? Are you in search of intimate communion with nature, or a celebration with loved ones under the star-studded sky?

⛵ The Season's Song

Lastly, heed the song of the season. In the summer, the bay transforms into a hubbub of marine traffic, its waters dancing with pleasure craft and commercial vessels alike. In contrast, the winter months offer a quieter, more contemplative experience, with the possibility of witnessing migratory birds and marine life.

The Perfect Yacht for the San Francisco Waters

In this vast liquid canvas, which yacht should one choose? To answer this, we must return to our earlier contemplations.

⛵ For the Leisure Seeker

For those seeking leisurely exploration, the motor yacht is an excellent choice. With its superior stability and spacious accommodation, it offers a serene sojourn through the bay's waters. From the opulent saloons, you can watch as the cityscape unfurls and wildlife flourishes. On a clear summer evening, the deck transforms into the perfect stage for a sunset toast, with the bay serving as your own private theater.

⛵ For the Adventurous Soul

For the adventurous souls who yearn to feel the thrill of the Pacific winds and the rhythm of the ocean waves, a sailing yacht is an unparalleled choice. These vessels, reminiscent of the early pioneers of exploration, marry the thrill of adventure with the allure of the sea.

A catamaran, with its dual hulls, offers an intriguing blend of speed and stability, perfect for a jaunt around the bay. For a more immersive experience, a monohull sailboat, with its deep keel, promises a challenging yet rewarding adventure into the Pacific's heart.

Thus, the choice of the yacht is a reflection of the self, a testament to one's desires and yearnings. And in the end, irrespective of the choice, what remains constant is the magic of the San Francisco Bay, a fluid tapestry weaving stories of life, nature, and the inherent beauty of our planet.

In the Wake of Inquiry: Navigating Questions on San Francisco Yachting

As we have charted a course through the waters of the San Francisco Bay, we find that our voyage often inspires a host of questions. It is the natural human instinct to inquire, to seek answers, to strive for understanding. We welcome this curiosity, for it fuels our collective quest for knowledge. Let's delve into some frequently asked questions in our shared adventure on the water.

What is the best time to sail in the San Francisco Bay?

The bay's waters sing a different song with each passing season. In the summer months (June through September), the weather is generally warm, and the winds are consistent, making for excellent sailing conditions. However, the bay can get crowded during this period. The shoulder seasons of spring (April-May) and fall (October-November) can provide a more serene experience with mild weather conditions.

Is it necessary to have sailing experience to rent a yacht in San Francisco?

Not necessarily. Many yacht rental services offer the option of hiring a professional crew along with the vessel. This allows novices, or those simply wishing to relax and enjoy the journey, to experience the bay without the responsibility of manning the yacht.

What safety precautions should be considered while yachting in San Francisco?

Safety is paramount in all maritime adventures. Always ensure that the yacht is equipped with life jackets for all passengers, fire safety equipment, and a first-aid kit. It's crucial to check weather forecasts before setting sail and remain aware of shipping lanes and marine traffic. An understanding of tidal patterns and wind conditions in the bay is beneficial as well.

How long does it take to sail around the San Francisco Bay?

The time can vary greatly depending on the speed of your yacht, the weather conditions, and your specific course. A leisurely sail around the bay, with stops at notable destinations, could easily fill an entire day.

Are there restrictions on where one can anchor in the San Francisco Bay?

Yes, there are specific regulations about anchoring in the bay, particularly around bridges, commercial shipping lanes, and protected marine areas. It's recommended to consult navigation charts and local maritime regulations or speak with your yacht rental company to understand these restrictions.

By addressing these queries, we hope to enrich your understanding and appreciation of the yachting experience in the San Francisco Bay. The thirst for knowledge, much like the call of the sea, is a profound and elemental aspect of our human journey. In seeking answers, we not only enrich our own experience but also contribute to the collective wisdom of those who choose to embark on this aquatic adventure.

What to Expect

What to wear.

The bay has many faces and we will do our best to make your journey the most comfortable, but we always recommend the below for your comfort and safety:

​Bring layers of clothing, as it’s better to take layers off versus not having layers to put on. Please note, we will ask you to take your shoes off upon boarding the boat, and we provide sanitized SUPER COMFY slippers. We also have cozy sanitized deck blankets, as well.

Our Disclaimer

What if there is bad weather?

The Captain reserves the right to cancel or delay the charter, due to weather or unforeseen circumstances. The Captain has ultimate authority and say on all activities on ChinChin that would imperil the safety of passengers, crew or boat.

​ Our Captains continuously monitor the weather as part of their professional responsibilities to the vessel and client. They are the only person who may cancel a charter due to weather. If there is extreme weather and our captain deems it unsafe to operate we will offer a refund and/or a reschedule. Extreme weather in the Bay Area is categorized as heavy rain and/or strong wind and/or waves.

We will contact you, the client, 72-24 hours before your event in such case, except for same day reservations.

Is gratuity included?

British tech magnate Mike Lynch, 2 US citizens among missing after luxury yacht sinks off Sicily

15 people were rescued and one body believed to be the cook was found near the wreck, but six others were unaccounted for and believed inside the hull, by andrea rosa and nicole winfield | the associated press • published august 19, 2024 • updated on august 19, 2024 at 6:21 pm.

British tech magnate Mike Lynch and five other people were missing after their luxury sailing yacht sank during a freak storm off Sicily early Monday, Italy’s civil protection and authorities said. Lynch’s wife and 14 other people survived.

Lynch, who was  acquitted in June  in a big U.S. fraud trial, was among six people who remain unaccounted for after their chartered sailboat sank off Porticello, when a tornado over the water known as a waterspout struck the area overnight, said Salvo Cocina of Sicily’s civil protection agency.

One body was recovered, and police divers spent the day trying to reach the hull of the ship, which was resting at a depth of 50 meters (163 feet) off Porticello where it had been anchored, rescue authorities said. They returned to the site after 10 p.m. to see if it would be possible to search through the night, when weather conditions were expected to worsen, said Luca Cari, spokesman of the fire rescue service.

24/7 New York news stream: Watch NBC 4 free wherever you are

It had a crew of 10 people and 12 passengers, the Italian coast guard said. A sudden fierce storm had battered the area overnight, and struck the place precisely where the 56-meter (184-foot) British-flagged Bayesian had been moored.

“They were in the wrong place at the wrong time,” said Cocina, noting that another superyacht nearby wasn't as badly damaged and helped rescue some of the 15 survivors, who included Lynch's wife Angela Bacares.

The Bayesian was notable for its single 75-meter (246-feet) mast — one of the world’s tallest made of aluminum and which was lit up at night, just hours before it sank. Online charter sites listed it for rent for up to 195,000 euros (about $215,000) a week.

One of the survivors, identified as Charlotte Golunski, said she momentarily lost hold of her 1-year-old daughter Sofia in the water, but then managed to hold her up over the waves until a lifeboat inflated and they were both pulled to safety, Italian news agency ANSA reported, quoting the mother. The father, James Emsley, also survived, said Cocina.

Karsten Borner, the captain of the Sir Robert Baden Powell, said he had noticed the Bayesian nearby during the storm but after it calmed he saw a red flare and realized the ship had simply disappeared, ANSA and the Giornale di Sicilia newspaper reported. Borner said he and a crew member boarded their tender and found a lifeboat with 15 people, some of them injured, who they then took aboard and alerted the coast guard.

Eight of those rescued were hospitalized while the others were taken to a hotel. One body believed to be the cook was found near the wreck, but six others were unaccounted for and believed inside the hull, said Cari, the fire rescue spokesperson. The rescue operations, which were visible from shore, involved helicopters and rescue boats from the coast guard, fire rescue and civil protection service.

Fisherman Francesco Cefalu’ said he had seen a flare from shore at around 4:30 a.m. and immediately set out to the site but by the time he got there, the Bayesian had already sunk, with only cushions, wood and other items from the superyacht floating in the water.

“But for the rest, we didn’t find anyone,” he said from the port hours later. He said that he immediately alerted the coast guard and stayed on site for three hours, but didn't find any survivors. “I think they are inside, all the missing people.”

He said he had been up early to check the weather to see if he could go fishing, and surmised that a sudden waterspout had struck the yacht.

“It could be that the mast broke, or the anchor at the prow pulled it, I don’t know,” he said.

Cocina said the crew and passengers hailed from a variety of countries: In addition to Britain and the United States, passengers and crew were from Antigua, France, Germany, Ireland, Myanmar, the Netherlands, New Zealand and Spain, he said.

Among the dead and missing, four were British, two were American, and one was a man with dual citizenship from Canada and Antigua, according to Luciano Pischedda, the Italian Coast Guard official overseeing the rescue operations.

The UK Marine Accident Investigation Branch is deploying a team of four inspectors to Italy to conduct a preliminary assessment. The Foreign Commonwealth and Development office said it was “providing consular support to a number of British nationals and their families.”

Dutch foreign ministry spokesperson Casper Soetekouw said the lone Dutch citizen on board, a man, had been rescued and was not in life-threatening condition.

Lynch, once hailed as Britain’s king of technology, was cleared in June of fraud and conspiracy charges related to Hewlett Packard’s $11 billion takeover of his company, Autonomy Corp.

The not-guilty verdicts followed an 11-week criminal trial in San Francisco that delved into the history of HP’s  2011 acquisition  of Autonomy, a business software firm founded by Lynch.

The  fraud accusations  represented a dramatic turn in the fortunes of an entrepreneur once described as the Bill Gates of Britain — a title he seemed to live up to when he netted an $800 million from the Autonomy sale.

The acquittal vindicated Lynch, who had vehemently denied wrong doing and portrayed HP as a technological train wreck.

“I’m looking forward to returning the UK and getting back to what I love most: my family and innovating in my field,” Lynch said in a statement released after the verdict.

The yacht, built in 2008 by the Italian firm Perini Navi, can accommodate 12 passengers in four double cabins, a triple and the master suite, plus crew accommodations, according to Charter World and Yacht Charters.

The vessel, which previously was named Salute when it flew under a Dutch flag, featured a sleek, minimalist interior of light wood with Japanese accents designed by the French designer Remi Tessier, according to descriptions and photos on the charter sites.
