Experience Provider Info
Complete information for your Experience Provider, including contact information, will be included on your booking confirmation email once you or your gift recipient have scheduled the experience. Our Product Management team handpicks top-rated experience providers, removing the guesswork for you and ensuring your peace of mind.

Maximum of 20 passengers. No minimum amount of passengers, but crew must know final passenger count at time of booking.
Spectators
This experience is to be enjoyed by the participants only.
Weather Dependent
The ship sails in most weather conditions. A trip is only canceled in the event of severe or unsafe weather conditions. Cancellations are made on the day of the sail, by the Captain, up to 1 hour prior to sail time. Always contact the experience provider with any questions regarding weather conditions on the day of your experience. In the event of a canceled sail, passengers will reschedule directly with the experience provider.
What To Wear
Dress is typically casual. The temperature can be cooler out on the water, so dress accordingly. We ask that passengers wear closed-toed shoes such as sneakers or deck shoes. Please, no sandals or high-heels as there is a lot of movement on the yacht.
Will I get seasick?
Most passengers do not experience seasickness. The USA 76 is a stable yacht, designed for cutting through waves rather than riding up and over them.
Is there a restroom on board?
There is not a restroom on board. Restroom facilities are available at the pier prior to the sail.
Can I bring food and drinks on board?
Light snacks and bottled water will be served on board. The USA 76 is a racing yacht, and the experience is typically an active, hands-on sail. It is recommended not to bring food or additional drinks on board.
What if there is no wind?
In the unlikely event of no wind in San Francisco Bay, you will reschedule directly with your Captain.
Will I get wet?
This is a hands-on sailing experience, and there is a possibility of getting splashed. Appropriate gear is provided to keep you dry.
