Yacht Osprey

Gulfstar 50 (1-20 passengers)

We are very excited to announce that Osprey is now berthed at Marina Village Yacht Harbor in Alameda, providing a convenient East Bay pick up location. We can now sail the Oakland Estuary enjoying the warmth and protection of the East Bay as well as easy access to the main part of San Francisco Bay. Relax with a sail on Osprey for teambuilding or a sunset trip and then have dinner at one of the many convenient restaurants in Alameda. Call us to arrange your trip.

 

Big, roomy and stable Osprey was added to the fleet in 2011 and is a fine complement to Bay Wolf and Mahalo. This 50-foot ketch was built for cruising in comfort. Passengers can spread out on her ample deck to take in the sights, stay high and dry in the center cockpit or duck below and lounge in the large, cushioned salon and galley. Yet she's no slouch under sail. With her three sails aloft, she cuts swiftly and confidently through the water no matter what winds and waves come her way.

 

This beautiful boat was refitted in the winter of 2011-12 to ensure charter guests' comfort, safety, and enjoyment. On deck Osprey has many comfortable places to sit or even recline, perhaps with a chilled glass of Chardonnay or frosty microbrew in hand. Below deck she boasts ample headroom as well as a large salon with seating for several people and a galley with a sink, table, and refrigerator.

 

Guests who accept the invitation to steer Osprey will find her easy to maneuver, plenty responsive yet steady and reliable, thanks to her large keel, ample rudder and sturdy rig. Sailing upwind, perhaps heading toward the Golden Gate Bridge on a summer afternoon, she'll heel over a bit and give passengers a thrill. Downwind she'll flatten out and give passengers a breather -- a good time to take in the sights of San Francisco's cityfront or scenic Angel Island.
