Father's Day Sail on Matthew Turner
About this Event
Board in Sausalito for an enjoyable family sail on SF Bay, with views of the Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz, Angel Island and the San Francisco Cityfront. All ages are welcome. You wil be invited to help raise the sails, and can relax and enjoy the ride, or ask the crew to teach you about traditional sailing skills like coiling lines and nautical knots.
The Ship
Matthew Turner is a 132’ wooden brigantine, built in Sausalito, CA, launched in 2017 and sailing the Bay since 2020. She is an unique educational platform, serving students of all ages in Seamanship, Marie Science, Nautical History and Team Building instruction. Contact us to arrange an educational sail for a group.
Location
Matthew Turner is docked at the Bay Model Visitor Center pier in Sausalito, CA. Access to the parking lot and pier is via Marinship Way.
Parking
Free parking is available in the Bay Model Visitor Center lot. Parking is limited in the Bay Model parking lot due to Sea Trek Kayaking and the Bay Model being busy in the mornings and early afternoons. Spillover parking is available on Bridgeway (non metered all day spots).
Check in
Please wait at the gate to the pier in front of the Bay Model. There will be an escort to walk you past the gate, down the pier to the ship.
Restrooms
We recommend using shore facilities at the Bay Model as a priority prior to sailing. Matthew Turner has a public restroom on board, available for use one at a time.
