I just became a member... YEA!!! I have been going for the last couple of years because I have friends who are members. So finally decided to become a member myself. I love this location. It is perfect and the views are fantastic. The outdoor seating is very comfortable and the people are friendly but most importantly you can go with friends and just chill with a great view and away from the tourist crowd of Sausalito. The summer Thursday nights Bar-b-ques are to die for. A great selection of salads and side dishes and your choice of either a huge burger, grilled salmon, grilled chicken, or grilled flank steak. As good as it gets for $12.00. The Friday night dinners are great. I've been to a private party there and their in house staff did a great job with the food and service. I am now a member of a few clubs and I wish I had done this sooner in my life. I have found the clubs that I have joined the people are real and enjoy getting out and making new friends. Also if you are a member you end up having a reciprocal agreement with all the other Yacht Clubs in the area which is especially nice when the Blue Angles are in town and you visit the Golden Gate Yacht Club on the Marina in SF. The Angles fly right over the GGYC.
The place has a kid's sailing program. I made the mistake of making him join it in winter. On day one they flipped the boat once and righted it. Then they towed them around and told them go left rudder, right rudder. On day two they took them to Peninsula Point in high gusts. They put the "new" kids in the same boats, not an experienced older child with a new one. Just two "new" kids who are 9 years old. From afar in my binoculars, all the boats were capsizing, being righted and capsizing again and again, even the older kids fared badly due to the wind. After capsizing multiple times the instructor motored over and when he asked for help and held on to her boat and the sailboat she told him "you already learned how to right the sailboat, you should have listened". Then zoomed elsewhere, leaving them to float. In the end the main instructor rushed out in another motor boat, picked up the kids and towed the sailboats. Later she gave us some excuses. As you can tell my kid has no interest in sailing again. He did write a great paper about the experience and has a catchy title. To say I am still upset a year later is an understatement..... Honestly, if the club is interested in any feedback. They should get a Hot Tub on the deck, no freezing kid wants to run around to the showers waiting for the water to warm up their freezing hands. They should also mix one veteran kid, with one beginner kid. The ratio of boats to instructors is also too high as was evident. I doubt they care much to make the changes though as there will always be another parent who reads this and says, that won't be my kid or so and so's kid was very happy there.

Excellent outdoor deck - lovely view on the water. Perfect day watching the Blue Angels. Dawn is a great server.
Members only and their guests can dine here. Was fortunate to be invited by a member and enjoyed a great view, great food and very warm service. The stand outs were their fried avocado ( battered and deep fried slices of avocado) with a yummy dipping sauce. The fried calamari was really tender and one of the best I have had. I had a vodka sauce homemade sausage penne pasta and it was just perfect. The Friday prime rib was just ok. Very fatty. Came with creamed spinach and mash. The atmosphere was warm and has a higher end casual feel.
A wonderful mix of benefits for members, including a wonderful set of views dining on the deck, or inside with the multiple large windows out on the bay, plus the programs to learn how to use diverse kinds of boats, go out on the boats with friends, plus fun and impressive speakers to hear, and watch movies or participate in other special programs related to the times of the year + adjacent free parking to come in
I mainly come to the Sausalito Yacht Club on Wednesday nights for my Lions Meetings and I can tell you the food is delicious! We are served buffet style so I'm not sure what it is like to order off the menu. I have had excellent salmon, tri-tip, pulled pork, ribs, potatoes and green veggies here and would recommend all of them. The views from the inside are some of the best in Sausalito and the bartender Ern is hilarious.
A cute, petit yacht club in a picturesque town. Been there a couple of times via boat, but the guest dock is always busy and there's a two hour limit on the dock, so that prevents us to disembark and explore Sausalito. We tied up on the mooring ball and watch the shore activiites. Food review: no experiece for reasons above.
I suggest to dine in at the Sausalito Yacht Club. We have excellent food, good quality! Check out the amazing pictures that are posted of the food we serve here. They are delicious!

Like most yacht clubs (since I'm so yacht-club saavy---not) you have to be a member or know a member in order to hang here. I have the unique pleasure of dining at the SYC anytime I like since my parents are members and actually have to eat here a certain number of times a month or they get billed anyways. I must say though, it's worth sneaking in for the excellent meals, fantastically strong cocktails and killer bay deck. Their brunch is memorable, the dinner menu competes with some of the best restaurants in the city and the view can't be beat. If you're there for dinner, the rabbit is the best I've had (including a traditional spread after a hunt in outer Quebec.) On Sundays in the summer they have an incredible BBQ buffet on the deck that overlooks the bay. And it's all super relaxed and unpretentious if you can believe it. One of these days I'm going all out and getting one of those salmon colored yacht club polo shirts so New Yorkers can quizzically stare and wonder if I'm being ironic.
I've been to a wedding and have had countless dinners here in the past. Although everyone seems to be down to earth and the staff is extremely friendly I never got that yacht club feel here. I guess this is your yacht club without the stuffiness but when I'm at a yacht club I think I look forward to a little stuffiness, just a tad. Great views though. :)

Sailing in Sausalito: A Complete Guide
Ahoy, adventurous souls! Welcome to the shimmering waters of Sausalito, California. This picturesque seaside community – nestled on the northern end of the iconic Golden Gate, after which the bridge is named – is not just an artist’s haven or a foodie’s paradise; it’s a sailor’s dream.
Sausalito, with its sweeping vistas of San Francisco and the Pacific, offers more than just stunning views – it promises an fun sailing experience, unparalleled by few other locations in the world.
Whether you’re piloting your own vessel, taking a sailing tour, hiring a chartered yacht, or up for an adventure in renting a boat, sailing in Sausalito promises to be an incredible way to experience my favorite coastal town. In this guide, you’ll find everything you need to know to go sailing in Sausalito – on your own, in a group, or however you choose.
This post covers the essentials you need to get to Sausalito by boat and/or start your sailing adventure here; you can use the rest of this site to plan your time in Sausalito once you step back on land. Are you ready to take the helm and explore the sailor’s nirvana that is Sausalito? Let’s batten down the hatches, and sail into an unforgettable adventure.
Table of Contents
Sausalito Sailing Tours
It’s no surprise that most travelers have sailing in mind when they come to Sausalito. I mean, there’s a lot of water around the town. You’ll be spoilt with choice when it comes companies that offer tours for sailing in Sausalito. Just so you don’t get overwhelmed, I’ve listed the best sailing businesses below so you can browse their options and enjoy a day out in the water!
Schooner Freda B Public Sailings
Schooner Freda B Public Sailings offers some of the most popular Sausalito sailing tours. They have tons of tour options, but popped love the most that they all have this old-school wood boat bay tours aura. If you go to their website, you’ll notice they offer private charters, sunset sails, wedding celebrations, birthday parties, and more, and also public sails.
Captain Kirk’s Sausalito Sailing
If you don’t enjoy mingling with strangers, Captain Kirk’s Sausalito Sailing offers only private charters. They host their sailing adventures on three yachts: the Bay Wolf , the Mahalo , and the Osprey . There’s no shortage of trips to choose from: sunset sailings, Angel Island Barbecue, sailing lessons; you can even book an Ash Scattering Memorial.
(If you don’t get the joke behind the name of this company, Starfleet Headquarters is actually located in Sausalito – so it’s got an interesting connection to science fiction!)
SF Bay Adventures
SF Bay Adventures has a huge fleet, but they alaos also own and host some of their most popular trips for sailing in Sausalito aboard a Schooner Freda B – which is gorgeous, by the way. They offer public sails, but their strong point are private charters. You can choose from yacht charters on SF Bay to private events packages.
Fine Day for Sailing
A Fine Day for Sailing is a lesser known sailing outfit. Heather Richard is the captain of the yacht Carodon . She offers her boat for private charter to those who intent on spending one of our days out sailing the bay. Her service portfolio includes from nautical photo shoots and events to naturalist-led excursions on the water.
Sausalito Boats for Rent
If you prefer something more personal, you can always turn to locals who open their boats and yachts to travelers. There are two Sausalito boat rentals you can explore online.
Boatsetter
Boatsetters is a boat rental community that’s been active since 2012. The platform allows travelers to connect with boat owners, and licensed captains. You’ll find different kinds of experiences, from short sails around the bay or a day-long fishing excursion.
As of publishing in mid-2023, there are 10 boats available for rent in Sausalito on Boatsetter .
GetMyBoat is very cool online platform that offers both captained experiences and drive-it-yourself rentals; it’s similar to Boatsetter. They also have 9 listings of boats for rent in Sausalito – it looks like many of the same boats are available on both platforms.
Sailing Your Own Boat in Sausalito
If you have your own boat and want to come visit Sausalito, there are other considerations too. Below are some tips to help you make the most of your time in this lovely community.
Sailing in Richardson Bay
Richardson Bay is a beautiful spot to go sailing – but it can be a bit treacherous; there is a problem with anchor-out boats that obstruct the main channels.
I strongly recommend consulting sailing charts to get an overall sense of the area, plus using your radar/AIS and your eyes to look for both anchored boats and unpowered craft (like kayaks , of which there are many on a weekend). I also advise against sailing into Richardson Bay at night since not all of the boats are properly lit to help you avoid collisions.
Day/Overnight Moorage in Sausalito
Several of Sausalito’s marinas offer daily/overnight moorage. You should definitely call each marina before you sail into town, just to confirm the details and availability. Here are ones you can start with:
- Schoonmaker Point Marina has daily moorage from $2-$4 per foot, depending on length
- Clipper Yacht Harbor also offers daily moorage from $2-$3 per foot
Sausalito Yacht Club , Sausalito Cruising Club , and Marina Plaza Harbor may all also offer daily moorage, but I don’t know the details – definitely call to inquire. (Some may require membership too, just FYI.)
Long-Term Moorage in Sausalito
If you’re looking for monthly or longer moorage, there are options for that too.
- Schoonmaker Point Marina also has monthly moorage from $21.80 per foot
- Blue Water Yacht Harbor offers monthly moorage from $12.25 per foot
- Clipper Yacht Harbor also offers monthly moorage from $13-$28 per foot
- Richardson Bay Marina has monthly moorage rates starting from $14.50 per foot
Pelican Harbour , Bridgeway Marina, Sausalito Cruising Club, and Marina Plaza Harbor also may offer monthly moorage; I don’t have details for these ones either, so I’d start with the four listed above and choose one of them if possible.
As for live-aboard slips (like the one we had in Bridgeway Marina), I’m sorry to burst your bubble but those aren’t really available in Sausalito. Most marinas that have live-aboard slips have a multi-year waiting list.
Have any other questions about sailing in Sausalito, from renting a boat, sailing your own, or where to park it? Let me know in the comments below!
Valerie fell in love with Sausalito after her very first visit; she and her husband then moved there in 2019. It's one of her favorite places in the Bay Area and she's excited to show you the best parts of her city.

Membership is open to people who have boats in Sausalito or live in the area and who have an interest in boating.
The clubhouse is located adjacent to the Sausalito Ferry pier , between the Ferry and the Spinnaker Restaurant .

First Impressions of the J/24 Sportboat - by Spinnaker Sailing Instructor Dave Goeke
Dave Goeke, a seasoned sailor with over 40 years of experience on the Bay, recently had his first encounter with the J/24 sportboat model. Despite his extensive sailing background, Dave had primarily sailed the Merit 25, which he has used as an ASA 101 teaching vessel for nearly two decades. The introduction of the new ASA 102, Performance Sailing course, led Dave to Modern Sailing in Berkeley, where he spent a day "learning the ropes" of the J/24 under the guidance of Senior Instructor Eric Wittig. This article captures Dave's insights and comparisons between the J/24 and the Merit 25, highlighting the distinct characteristics and performance differences that make each boat unique.

Reuven Trabin's Lifelong Passion for Small Boat Sailing
Reuven Trabin’s journey into the world of sailing began in the late 1970s aboard simple sailboats on the warm waters of Israel, where the thrill of harnessing the wind ignited an enduring passion for the sport. Over the decades, particularly after relocating to the Bay Area, Reuven navigated the challenges and opportunities of career and fatherhood, eventually formalizing his skills, and deepening his interest in sportboat sailing.

Testimonials.
I've taken two classes at MSS&C and was very happy with the program. This is also a great club with lots of opportunities for camaraderie and practice on the water. The boats in the fleet are fantastic and kept in tip-top shape. I highly recommend for all sailors and would-be sailors!
The office staff was very accommodating in meeting my availability.
The class was terrific. I know you must get many compliments about your sailing instructors...But I must tell you that Robert is outstanding. Having taught SCUBA, I really appreciate the way he is so sensitive to all on board, dealing with each so well, knowing quickly their strengths and weaknesses making each feel special and cared for.
