About This Tour

A private charter aboard Cloudia, a beautifully restored 1934 Norwegian double-ended ketch, sailing Mission Bay with your own captain and crew — book the 6-8pm window for a sunset sail, or choose a morning or afternoon departure instead. Cloudia is a rare, USCG-inspected wooden double-ended ketch built in 1934 to designs by famed naval architect Colin Archer — the same shipyard that built the polar-expedition ship Fram. Departures run throughout the day (morning, afternoon, and a 6-8pm evening window); request the evening slot if a sunset sail matters most to you, and we'll confirm timing for the season.
