Birthday Surprise!

The saying "smooth sailing" never rang so true as the afternoon we went out with Captain Paul! Our sailing outing was for a birthday surprise and Paul was so accommodating in making it a unique and memorable experience. His general knowledge of sailing and his stories of his own experiences made the sail comfortable and efficient. We were able to bring all the picnic food we could have ever wanted and were able to thoroughly surprise the birthday girl with an awesome afternoon. You really can't beat the price in the Bay Area for an excellent Captain and beautiful boat!



Thanks so much Paul!

Fantastic sailing experience with Adams Sailing

Adams Sailing delivers an outstanding experience at a wonderful price. Rather than spend our Bay area sightseeing time crammed on a boat with a million other people, we went sailing with Captain Paul. He showed us all the sights in the Bay area and gave us the personal attention we would have never received on a larger vessel. You can tell he truly enjoys what he does and cares about his passengers. He even provided everything from beverages to extra jackets to sunscreen.



Neither one of us had been sailing before, but we both had a wonderful experience. If you're EVER interested in a one-of-a-kind sailing trip with a highly experienced captain, Adams Sailing is the place to go!

Memories to keep!

May 10,2008 will now be a day that I will never forget for the rest of my life. My fiance suprised me by proposing to me on Captin Paul's sailboat in the middle of the San Francisco Bay. What an amazing experience! Captin Paul gave us beautiful views of the Golden Gate, Alcatraz, Angel Island and my favorite, the skyline of San Francisco. The weather was great the water was not rough at all. My fiance and I were lucky to see a cruise ship that was leaving the bay at the same time. I know this day would not have been as special with out Captin Paul and his wife. He is a great host, they are kind and made my fiance and I feel very comfortable on the boat. They had the champagne prepared and helped us out with wonderful memorable pictures that will last a lifetime! If anyone is looking for an unforgetable way to sweep their girl's off their feet with a proposal, this is the way to go. The experience was great and so special, I would recommend anyone to Captin Paul. Till today I can honestly say, I wish I could do it all over again! Thanks Captin Paul!

Couldn't be better

Captain Paul and his wife took us for a sail around the Bay and under the Golden Gate Bridge, where I proposed to Alison. Captain Paul broke out the pre-arranged champagne and the crew ensured that we had lots of lovely pictures of the event, which were sent on to us later by e-mail. Communication with me prior to the day, including directions to the boat and pick up point, were frequent and precise, and the cruise itself was exactly what I had had in mind. Top marks - no hesitation in recommending to anyone looking for a special experience of the Bay.

An Incredible Experience

A small group of friends who had never been sailing before gathered for a "2 hour cruise" around sunset. The weather was perfect, the skies clear, the water not too choppy, and you could see the Golden Gate Bridge, the city skyline, Alcatraz, and the surrounding islands. It was a marvelous experience, led by a very patient, kind, well informed, well traveled sailor. Captain Paul allowed us to choose our course, answered our many questions, was a gracious host, and did his very best to ensure that a fun sail was had by all. He also emailed pictures after the cruise. The experience is highly recommended!! We hope to return one day. Thank you Paul!

Captain Paul is the best!!!!

We had the most wonderful, incredible, unforgettable experience on 10/01/07 on FANSEA with Captain Paul. My fiancee surprised me by proposing on the sailboat at sunset. The special day would not have been possible without Captain Paul's planning, attention to detail, and his "going the extra mile." (Nautical mile? =) We will definitely be back to "sail out of Sausalito." What a beautiful day. We are so happy!
