Technology

The on-line proprietary scheduling software and the wireless FirstMate device enable our Members to get on the yacht without the worries of having to deal with a reservation office or meeting the staff for the check-in/check-out procedure. This way Members can focus on what is important to them and get out sailing on the beautiful waters of the San Francisco Bay and surroundings.

Just imagine...

A Saturday with friends on the waters of the San Francisco Bay:

It's a hot Monday afternoon in July, the weather on Saturday is supposed to be fantastic! You decide you want to go out sailing on the San Francisco Bay with a few friends and relax. You simply log into the Member website, and reserve the available Saturday time slot. On Friday, before you leave work, you log in and confirm your time slot. That's it and nothing more! Have a great day on the water with your friends enjoying all that sailing has to offer on a brand new luxury yacht, we handle the rest.

A spontaneous Thursday Evening with co-workers on a sailing boat:

It is 4:30 Thursday evening, work has thrown you a particularly hard week with clients in from out of town, and the deal has just been closed. You look outside and see that it is a beautiful evening with a promising sunset approaching; you log in to the Scheduler and see that Thursday evening is available, you grab it. Because it is within 24 hours of the time slot start this sail won't even count against your 7 guaranteed slots for the month. You, your boss, and the clients go for a relaxing sunset sail in front of a magnificent San Francisco skyline waiting to be admired; the smooth silent motion of the boat, pushed along gracefully by the wind melts away the stress of a difficult week. You spend the evening on the water discussing and celebrating your success in closing the deal.

A week long family sailing vacation:

It's a Friday evening in August and you feel as if you have spent the whole summer working hard and have not had any quality time to spend with your family. You rejoice in the fact that your bags are packed, and everything is ready to go. You log into the scheduler one last time to check the weather on the San Francisco and Monterey Bay, as well as other announcements posted by WindPath staff. You drive straight from work to the marina and meet your family there. 30 minutes later everything is stowed below and your family is sailing off into the sunset for seven days of relaxation, fun, exploration and adventure. The majestic San Francisco skyline and the Golden Gate Bridge are just ahead of you. Monterey Bay here we come! Seven days later, you reflect on the past week and you realize that you have just enjoyed one of the most memorable and fantastic experiences of your life with the people that mean the most to you.
