Looking to thank clients and employees? Want to add inspiration to a project? Host a maritime meeting or celebration with Hornblower. Various seating and set-up options and affordable amenities mean exceptional launch parties, client dinners and incentives.

Hornblower transforms ordinary parties into toast-worthy celebrations with striking scenery, affordable amenities and the West Coast’s most storied vessels. Yachts accommodate intimate ceremonies and large-group get-togethers, and our San Francisco event planners and staff help you navigate every detail.

Hornblower proudly sails some of the most storied vessels in California. The San Francisco fleet includes the 292-foot San Francisco Belle sternwheeler, a Bay Area landmark and the largest private charter yacht on the West Coast. Powered by solar panels, wind turbines and fuel-efficient Tier 2 marine diesel engines, the first-of-its-kind Hornblower Hybrid is the greenest vessel to sail Bay Area waters.
