    Getting Out on San Francisco Bay: From Ferries to Hornblower Cruises Author’s Note: This article “Getting Out on San Francisco Bay: From Ferries to Hornblower Cruises ” is a stand-alone article on my website. Further parallel articles on the Bay include chapters in my two main travel guidebooks/ebooks on California. They are Northern California History Travel Adventures: 35 Suggested Trips and Northern California Travel: The Best Options. All my travel guidebooks/ebooks on California can be seen on my Amazon Author Page. By Lee Foster Getting out on San Francisco Bay in a boat of some kind is a concept I recommend to all visitors and locals. San Francisco Bay is such an inviting body of water, especially if your boat trip takes you across the Bay or out beyond the Golden Gate Bridge. From a boat you can see the Bridges, especially the Bay Bridge and the Golden Gate Bridge, plus the skyline profile of the city of San Francisco. You can see the lovely green Marin hillsides and the profiles of the main Bay islands, such as Alcatraz and Angel Islands. The protected Bay waters are usually not too rough. Sometime you will encounter wildlife, such as sea lions and migrating birds. Occasionally, you may pass close to the immense container ships that come through the Golden Gate into the port of Oakland. Their cargo will likely come from China and Korea. The Ferry Option for San Francisco Bay The excursion boat California Hornblower ready to depart on San Francisco Bay There are many ways to get out on San Francisco Bay in a boat, and I have done most of them at one time or another.

    APPENDIX A BACKGROUND ANALYSIS FOR WATER- DEPENDENT ACTIVITIES 191 APPENDIX B TEXT OF PROPOSITION H ORDINANCE 202 APPENDIX C GLOSSARY OF TERMS 207 APPENDIX D SEAWALL LOT/ASSESSORS BLOCK CORRELATION CHART 212 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS 213 191 Appendix A Background Analysis for Water-Dependent Activities A key priority of the waterfront planning process was to ensure that ample property was reserved for the existing and future land use needs of the Port’s water-dependent activities. Water-dependent activities – those which require access to water in order to function – include cargo shipping, ship repair, passenger cruise, excursion boats and ferries, recreational boating and water activities, historic ships, fishing, and temporary and ceremonial berthing. The land use needs of these industries were determined following intensive, indus- try-by-industry evaluations and public workshops which were completed in October 1992. Approximately two-thirds of the Port’s properties were then reserved to meet the future needs of water-dependent activities. Below are brief summaries of those industries, taken from more detailed profiles prepared by Port staff, and from statements of facts and issues based on the profile reports and workshops with industry representatives. These additional documents are available from the Port of San Francisco upon request. Following the sum- maries of the industries is a brief summary of dredging and its impacts on maritime operations at the Port of San Francisco. Cargo Shipping Industry The “containerization” of cargo, whereby freight is pre-loaded into standard size boxes (as compared to “break-bulk” cargo which is freight that is made up of similar sized pieces loaded loosely or on palettes), began a revolution in shipping that has had dramatic impacts on most older waterfront cities, including San Francisco.
