About this venue

We are your one-stop-shop for all wedding events! There is nothing like a shared experience to draw people close together. Sailing lends itself to a mingling atmosphere where everyone can spend quality time looking at the sites and making memories that will last a lifetime. Spend quality time with those who traveled far, your wedding party, and your families. Everyone will get an opportunity to cut loose, mingle, and get to know the key players in your big day for less than it would cost you to dine out at a restaurant. You will get a chance to relax and enjoy the beauty of nature while all your loved ones experience the glory that is SF Bay. Gas Light is the perfect venue for intimate events up to 49 people! Our Captain will perform your ceremony and have you actually get married in front of your most cherished family and friends.

We're especially happy to hear that Leah made your day memorable! We'll be sure to share your kind words with her. Thank you for your continued support, and we look forward to seeing you aboard again soon!

You have many options on where to board. Here is a small sample: 1. South Beach Harbor in San Francisco, a short distance from Giants Stadium. Meeting Location – We will meet at the benches at pier 40/ South Beach Harbor at the parking lot. 2 Marina Village in Alameda 3. Sausalito 4.Marina Bay Yacht Harbor in Richmond.
GAS LIGHT doesn’t “heel,” meaning she sails almost level with the waterline. Scow Schooners were designed this way in the 1800s to carry heavy cargo, so they characteristically remain level. It is very rare to experience seasickness on our vessel. One comment we hear nearly every cruise is how flat and stable GAS LIGHT feels under sail.
Typically windy – which makes for nice sailing! And also can be cool. If you’re a Bay Area resident, plan for 5-10+ degrees cooler than on land, depending on how far inland, and cooler still, after 5 pm.
May, June, July, August, September, October, and November
No, we have a full bar and California Liquor License. Just like you can't bring a beer to a bar, you can't bring your own adult beverages onboard.
Depending on your location you meet the boat. Pier 40 has meeters and paid lots. Marina Bay in Richmond, Alameda, and Sausalito all have free street parking and or a lot.
No, we are a historic yacht that is not wheelchair accessible
January, February, March, April, and December
