Sunset Sail on Matthew Turner

Board in Sausalito for an enjoyable sunset sail on SF Bay, with views of the Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz, Angel Island and the San Francisco Cityfront. All ages are welcome.

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.
