F.A.Q.
Answers to the most common first time sail tour questions
We are usually ready for you 10-15 minutes before your reservation start time, we do advise for you to arrive 20-25 minutes early allowing time for freeway/airport traffic and time to park safely, off-load needed items. We also encourage visiting the restroom at the main building (prior to boarding) located across from the pool area, and then walking west towards Gate#1 entrance location. On weekends and holiday’s, we recommend to use Uber/Lyft. If you choose to drive to our location, on site parking lot is a paid-lot requiring a pay-gate access (take ticket) to enter. To EXIT, scan ticket at exit gate then pay by credit card to exit lot. There is very limited on street parking nearby, but it’s FREE! There is also parking at very nearby COASTERRA/ C-Level Lounge, if visiting there before or after your trip. Please confirm with them prior.
Unlike many other San Diego tour boat operators, we actually highly encourage (BYOB) to personalize and therefore enhance your onboard experience. Feel free to bring your favorite GROG and fare! We provide a large iced cooler onboard prepped with loads of ice, ready for your use. We also provide you with ALL the necessary platters, dishware, utensils, and the space for you to serve it up efficiently to your guests!
We DO NOT charge a corking fee! We do ask, if you are having a large party that creates a large amount of refuse, Please be a responsible patron and do a quick clean up, and remove your discards up to the nearby provided dumpster as you leave, this is our only requirement. This effort helps keep our prices low and allows us to have the boat ready for the next guests sail excursion. Thank You!
Yes, our boat is large and is supplied with a nice quality JBL Bluetooth stereo system. You are welcome to play all your favorite songs while outside the marina but ask that the volume be turned down once returning dockside in respect of our boating neighbors.
Though we do acknowledge this as an important factor to many of our guests, as of late, this factor has become somewhat complicated as we get equal requests from nondrinkers to make sure the boat is DRY of alcohol while they are on-board! That said there is always an ample complimentary supply of iced bottled waters, and light snacks to accompany your drinks. For certain programs and by prior request ONLY, the first round of light beer or white wine is on us. If in doubt feel free to BYOB!
All our excursions will have a licensed USCG Captain in charge of the boat. Our basic excursions are suitable for beginners as well as advanced sailors, you are not required to have any sailing experience or sailing certifications.
If you are renting a bareboat charter program, the reservation and check-in process is different in order to comply with USCG laws. Please call for details
Chances are highly unlikely that you will get seasick on our vessel specifically, we offer several reasons why?
Sailboats offer quite a different experience than powerboats. Sailboats are unlike power boats because they’re built with deep deep heavy (fin) keels under the water line, which provide great stability, as well as counter balance from forces of wind against sails vs said keel/weight. Powerboats lay on the waters surface which is why they tend to bob all about.
Additionally, our sailboat keel weight, shape and larger size is about the heaviest and largest per boat size offering the greatest stability available.
For those that still have concerns over fears of sea sickness, most of our excursions rarely leave the in-harbor calm controlled waters. If you have concerns over seasickness possibilities just simply request a harbor cruise to ease your mind.
Generally speaking and finals thoughts… If you are prone to getting car sick on windy roads or sitting in the back seat of a car, we recommend you take a motion sickness remedy 30-1 hour prior to boarding as a backup precaution.
