Skippered Sails & Team Events

What is a Skippered Sail?

A Skippered Sail is everything that you love about sailing and exploring San Francisco Bay - and your Captain is included.

A Skippered Sail is designed to help you relax and experience sailing in the San Francisco Bay. Hop aboard one of our yachts at either our Sausalito or Berkeley club and one of our US Coast Guard Licensed Captains will take you for a cruise.


Bay Tours and Skippered Sails

Tours include sailing past iconic sights such as Alcatraz Island, the San Francisco City Front, AT&T Park, and under the Golden Gate Bridge or the Bay Bridge. You will also experience lesser known destinations such as Paradise Cove, Treasure Island, and Angel Island. With a skilled Captain aboard, you will be encouraged to take the helm yourself or you can just sit back and enjoy the scenery.

Skippered Sails are a minimum of four hours long and can be customized to fit your schedule and specific goals for the day. With a fleet of about 50 yachts (including three catamarans) across two Bay Area locations, we can accommodate the size of your group. While you don't need a special reason to enjoy a day on the bay, it can be great option for family reunions, birthday parties, and team building events.

No matter if you are a seasoned sailor or a novice, a Skippered Sail is a great way to enjoy sailing in San Francisco.

Private Events and Skippered Sails

Skippered sails are a great option for 1 to 6 people and private events. For large team building events, a Corporate Regatta Challenge is a good fit for you. Learn more about the boats in our fleet here and view Skippered Sail packages and rates here.

    I love sailing in the San Francisco Bay and greatly appreciate everything that MSC has to offer, the classes, clinics, club sails, racing and charters. I enjoy our supportive sailing community and use every opportunity to spend time on the water. After obtaining the certifications from MSC I did my first charter in Croatia in 2022 with my family. It was amazing and we’re looking forward to returning soon!

    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.

  • Andrew Goble, San Francisco

    It has been wonderful sailing with MSC over the years. Please extend my thanks to the owners, management, and staff for unrequited professionalism and high standards in a charter fleet. I have sailed with several in my years and none nearly hold a candle to the quality of business and staff at Modern Sailing.

    The vessel was clean and in fine condition - very nice boat for training, well-equipped.

  • 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.
