Amazing stay. Boat is great, along with all the amenities at the Marina. Owner was available for any questions and checkin / checkout was a breeze. Staying on the boat was such a fun, unique experience. Would recommend for adults or families with kids. Only heads up I would offer is San Diego Bay is much longer than we realized. Getting to downtown midpoint was a short easy ride but if you intend to visit people on the northern end of the bay or past that, it’s more of a commute.
