Frequently asked questions
The boat is located at 181 N. Harbor Drive in Redondo Beach Marina. The physical dock is in front of Naja's Bar. Enter the parking lot next to Captain Kidd's restaurant, and then turn left and park anywhere near the boats.
You should arrive at the dock about 15 minutes before your sail time.
Parking can be purchased through the Park Mobile app. Follow the signs and note your parking space number to complete your purchase.
We do our best to keep you as dry as possible, however there is always a risk of getting wet.
Always prepare for wind and weather. Bring a sweatshirt or light jacket just in case.
Children are absolutely welcome to join us. Those under 13 are required to wear a life jacket. If you have your own life jackets, they will be provided.

That's okay! We don't like to get wet either. Our boats are keelboats, which means they have a weighted fin underneath to prevent the boat from capsizing, and they are encircled by life lines to keep everyone on board. We also have life jackets for you to wear for the duration of your sail. Just let your captain know if you would like one to wear before you cast off.
Sometimes all of the staff is on the water, and sometimes we're just on the other line. Please leave us a voice message and we will get back to you as soon as possible.
