![]() 'Imi Loa'Imi Loa means to "seek" or "explore" in Hawaiian. That's really what we hope to do in the long-term. Seek out new adventures and to explore where no boat has gone before!We bought 'Imi Loa in 1996. She's a 34 foot, 1988 Catalina cruising sloop, an ideal San Francisco Bay boat and quite possibly the most popular cruiser/racer in its size range on the Bay. A stiff and comfortable yacht with many amenities, it comfortably accommodates up to seven people. While the C-34 sails well in the typically heavy San Francisco summer winds, it is easily handled by a couple. In 2000, I decided to take the next step and go semi-professional. US Sailing offered an Instructor Qualification Clinic and in March of that year, I started teaching Basic Keelboat at Club Nautique in Alameda. One thing ultimately led to another and in June of 2004 I received my USCG 50-ton Masters license. In the spring of 2005 I started Mission Creek Sail Tours. If you're interested in private or group sailing lessons, Bay tours or daysails, longer charters or need a boat delivered anywhere on the West Coast, you can check out MCST's spiffy new web site or drop us a note.
Cheers,
