Bareboat Chartering Update - Social Bubbles Sailing

Last Updated July 7, 2020

On June 19, Marin County expanded its social guidelines to permit groups of up to 12 individuals within a "social bubble" to gather for outdoor activities. What does this mean for Modern Sailing?

Bareboat Charter Crews

Bareboat charterers can now expand their crew beyond their household to include members of their social bubbles. Masks are optional if your crew consists of those within your social bubble.

Bareboat Charter Availability

During Phase I and II of reopening, only Full Day reservations were available. To slightly increase our bareboat charter capacity, as of July 7, we are now able to offer half-day charters (noon check-in). Half-day charters are priced at the Full Day rate with a 15% discount applied. Your boat will be freshly sanitized in the morning before you arrive.

Staggered Start Times

To help reduce the number of people arriving at the office or docks at any given time, charter and class check-in times are staggered. Please be sure to arrive at the check-in time provided to you by your customer service representative.

Multi-Day Charter Discounts

To celebrate summer, Independence Day, and the re-opening of Ayala Cove's mooring field, we've also increased our special discounts on multi-day charters. The discount applies to the total charter rate for all consecutive days.

  • 2 days = 20% off
  • 3 - 5 days = 25% off
  • 5 or more days = 30% off

Stay Safe

Masks are still required to be worn on the docks, near the office, and while aboard during Courses, Clinics, Club Sails, and Races. We encourage everyone to continue doing their part to limit the spread of COVID-19 by following the guidelines issued by Marin County. Learn More

    I would like to compliment Stan Lander for his coaching, counseling and teaching Heavy Weather Offshore Sailing. Stan was very accommodating to all of the student's interests and shared his many years of insight on handling the boat in heavy seas. I would certainly recommend Stan and this course to sheltered waters sailors. My confidence in handling a boat of this size was certainly enhanced by the experience.

    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 meeting room was quite adequate and the location most convenient, but the course outline and instruction were outstanding. Modern Sailing is fortunate to have such a well organized instructor in Mr. Stan Lander who teaches very well from a rich professional background. Mr. Lander was generous with his time and patiently in helping students who needed more attention or time in understanding various aspects of the curriculum.

    Thumbs up to (Club Skipper) Geoff (Love) and his wife Laura. I went on my first Club Sail on Sunday, January 18, 2026. They were terrific!

  • Mike, Santa Rosa, California

    All of the courses and my instructors (JT and Stan) were extremely professional and full of knowledge and experience. I found I was able to learn from their experiences beyond the scope of the courses, and look forward to future opportunities to do so. I would highly recommend Modern Sailing to anyone.
