Not sure if this is the appropriate place for this but....
I have 4 out of state friends plannng a trip to SF for Fleet Week. they are all aviation and Camera nuts...professionals in one or the other, and VERY interested in shooting the Blue Angels etc. from water level.
I'm looking for suggestions, phone numbers etc. of potential boats for hire.
My list so far includes HORNBLOWER, COMMODORE, POTOMAC, ADVENTURE CAT, BLUE & GOLD, RED & WHITE.
WE are trying to avoid the mob scene with kids that you would find on the ferry type boats or the fishing boats at pier 39 etc. We are looking for something with less than 20 passengers, and so far the best we have found is a six passnger trawler rental (SERAFINA) that does provide a driver.
Athough I don't know the cost yet, it sounds great..
This would give us the opportunity to pack our own sandwiches and soft drinks aboard and stay warm and dry if there is a delay or bad weather or whatever.
I'm open to suggestions and have tried the internet and will try the SF Chamber of Commerce next, but figured someone who has gone out on Fleet week might have seen somebody that interested them.
Thanks for the help for my non-boating Montana friends. Mark
