Stretch your sea legs across the Bay. Modern Sailing offers the ultimate key to unlocking two distinct sailing fleets and destinations – Sausalito and Berkeley. Each location boasts its unique charm and challenges, promising unforgettable adventures on the San Francisco Bay.

Set Sail in Sausalito:

  • Picture this: Crisp ocean breeze, stunning vistas of the Golden Gate Bridge, and the vibrant Sausalito waterfront as your backdrop.
  • Master the art of crosswind docking: Hone your skills with our expert instructors, learning to navigate bustling marinas with confidence.
  • Embrace the social scene: Indulge in post-sail delights at one of Sausalito's charming harborside restaurants, soaking in the vibrant atmosphere.

Embrace the Thrill in Berkeley:

  • Gear up for adventure: Berkeley offers a dynamic waterfront, perfect for practicing downwind docking maneuvers and navigating the unique currents of the bay.
  • Experience a different perspective: Witness the cityscape from a fresh angle, enjoying the serenity of the East Bay shoreline.
  • Unwind in style: After your sail, explore the trendy cafes and shops that Berkeley's vibrant university district is known for.

The Best of Both Worlds:

With our half-day Site Orientation Sail, you can charter both locations for the same monthly membership dues! This exclusive program grants you the freedom to charter from either Sausalito or Berkeley, unlocking endless possibilities for your sailing escapades.

    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.

    Here are some snaps of Our Saturday, August 20, 2022 Modern Sailing Expedition with Captain Robert Bivin, who was outstanding. Please convey photos and thanks to him. He is an outstanding individual, leader and sailing instructor. His knowledge and experience made us all feel safe and our Farallones Day Trip educational and just amazing.

    I would definitely recommend Modern Sailing to anyone who is interested in learning to sail the right way.

    I took ASA 101 with them recently. They have the best customer service I've ever seen! I mistyped my address when I signed up online so didn't receive the textbook. I called and the lady immediately sent me another copy! Everyone at the club is super friendly.

    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!
