Boat Features

The motor vessel "Bay Mutt" was designed in the early 80s to cruise the coast, jumping 100s of miles from port to port, at a slow and comfortable speed. It was classy for its day, and now it has more of a nautical-rugged feel. She has 3 levels, two bathrooms, two bedrooms, a main cabin, and an upper deck, all open to all passengers. The vessel is open for you to bring your own food and beverages (or we can do this for you).

6 Guests

The US Coast Guard regulates us to 6 guests only. This is a good thing, as it creates a more spacious and open atmosphere.

Ambiance

You have control over how much the guide-like narration you want from the captain - he loves to talk about the Bay. You also have control over the bluetooth radio... The boat is by no means new. It is not a luxury yacht. This is a prime boating experience on a very weathered Bay.

Safety

Captain Bradley is licensed by the USCG. He has 20 eyars of experience on SF Bay. "Bay Mutt" is overly equipped for our safety.

Food and Beverages

Bring anything you want. We have a giant cooler with ice (upon request). There is fresh water aboard. You'll need to bring your own disposable dishes and utenzils.  We can also provide drinks and food if planned in advance for an extra charge.

We general depart from Berkeley Marina, however we can pick you up and drop you off in multiple locations around the bay - you pay the underway time from Berkeley.
