Frostbite-Free Sailing Adventures - Catamaran w/ Sunroom - Captained
The booking process was easy, and Jeremy was very quick to respond to any questions. On the day of our trip, we arrived about 50 minutes early due to light traffic, and the team was flexible enough to let us start about 20 minutes earlier so we could enjoy the great weather. During the 3-hour trip, we spent most of our time relaxing on the hammock, which comfortably fit three people at once. The team also provided very comfortable loungers for the other two members of our group. They were attentive throughout the trip and warned us about larger waves that might drench us while we were sitting on the hammock. Captain Efe regularly checked in to make sure we were doing well and happily explained what we were seeing around us, including the container ships, cranes, and the bay. We had an amazing trip. The boat is beautiful, and we felt safe and well taken care of the entire time. I would 100% recommend this experience and can’t wait to go out with Captain Efe again.

Safe & solid sailing catamaran - Green power! Stunning beauty & great location!
If you’re in the Bay Area, going with Jan and the Hokahey is a no brainer. Excellent communication from booking to boarding. Great conversation and knowledge of the area. Beautiful boat with room indoors for a warm setting out of the breeze, and plenty of room to spread out and sit up high and see the views or lay on the trampoline mesh up front to listen to the waves. Excellent experience, would recommend to anyone.

Safe & solid sailing catamaran - Green power! Stunning beauty & great location!
’Twas a gloomy day—your typical San Francisco midday gloom. Fog with teeth. Mist that clung like a secret. A chilled, still air that made the Bay look calm enough to trust… which is exactly how it gets you. Me and the missus had one objective: sail for the Golden Gate and get that clean, cinematic sweep under the red steel. Simple, right? Except nothing in that water is simple. The currents run their own agenda out there—silent, relentless, and utterly indifferent to whatever romantic plan you brought with you. Captain Jan sized up the day the way a seasoned operator reads a dossier. No drama. No bravado. Just facts. “Sure,” he said, steady as a man who’s seen worse, “but it’ll be a one-way trip in these currents.” That was the moment I knew we were in good hands. And don’t let his youthful appearance fool you—he’s not that young. Argh! The boat—ahem, catamaran—Hokahey, was clean, dialed-in, and quietly ready for business. There’s a cozy spot to keep you out of the wind when the Bay starts throwing attitude, a bathroom (critical), and most importantly… snacks. The kind of detail that tells you the person running the show has done this before and knows what matters when you’re out there with nothing but gray sky and cold water for company. The wind didn’t cooperate—no grand, billowing sails cutting through the fog like a movie poster. But here’s the thing: the engine is quiet and makes serious speed. No rattling chaos, no grinding clatter—just a smooth push through the chop like the vessel had its own mission and we were simply along for the ride. We tracked close to Alcatraz, its silhouette looming like a warning. Closed in on the Golden Gate, the great red arc appearing and disappearing through the mist like something you weren’t supposed to find. We chose not to explore Angel Island—call it discretion, call it timing, call it a tactical decision—and cruised the dock area as well, soaking in the city’s edge where steel, salt, and history all collide. No rush. No worries. No forced itinerary. Just a smooth, delightful, private cruise in the Bay—executed with calm precision and a kind of confidence you can’t fake. If you want a low-stress, high-quality sailing adventure that still feels like you earned it—Jan and the Hokahey are the way to go. Enjoy… and thanks, Jan.

Suncatcher 22ft Family Pontoon!
Our party had to switch the reservation from one person to another and the owners worked with us to make sure we could make the change. They communicated clearly, promptly, and professionally, making the process easy and enjoyable. I’d rent from them again without hesitation!

Luxury Italian Sailing Yacht on the Puget Sound — Seattle
We booked a last minute sail with Matt and it was the perfect addition to our Seattle trip! We brought our 5 month old baby and young children ages 3 and 5 and everyone had such a great time. The boat is gorgeous and Matt and JB are excellent company. We all really enjoyed learning about sailing from these two as well. Highly recommend!
