1 review for Bay View Charters
A very important person in my life passed away recently. Her wishes were to have her ashes spread at sea so that she could be "free".
A few years ago, we went through "The Neptune Society" for her husband's 'Memorial At Sea'. I'm not sure how the prices skyrocketed so high, but The Neptune Society was going to charge us $1895 for a private charter that could accommodate up to 50 people. ($1395 for 15-25 persons).
I was lucky to find Bay View Charters on the internet. "Captain Howard" was very friendly and accommodating. We requested to have a Saturday morning venture and wanted to have up to 25 guests. He gave us a GREAT rate, which really helped under the circumstances.
The Journey was just fine. Our family of 23 were able to spend the early afternoon alone and together on this private charter. There were two inside areas with seating - probably 8 seats above and another 8 seats below deck. Outside seating could comfortable accommodate 12+ persons. There wasn't any issue with all persons being on board to release the ashes underneath The Golden Gate Bridge.
Light refreshments - cookies & coffee were included in the price. I would definitely recommend Bay View Charters to anyone looking for this service or even just to charter a boat. The staff was very professional and accommodating.
