Scope and Content Note
Loose photographic prints:

- Item 94: FRISCO STAR (yacht) underway in the San Francisco Bay, California, view off starboard quarter, full sail, circa 1920-1930. Two unidentified men are visible on board, one most likely Clifford Smith. "Frisco Star" is written on the front and "Clifford Smith" and another indecipherable name are written on the back. Smith introduced the Star class in 1923. 1 black-and-white photographic print, 9 x 12 in.
- Item 95: Unidentified lumber dock, circa 1920-1930. Lumber is piled on a dock with a barge or other work vessel on the other side of the dock. What appears to be a Marin County coast is visible in the background. 1 black-and-white photographic print, 6 x 9 in.

Amazing views as expected sunset fears are outstanding. Service was excellent parking a bit of a hassle, but doable a little more signage down the road would be nice. Thumbs up all around.
This private club venue is a delight for the eyes as well as the palate. Diners sit up on the second floor and can gaze out to see the islands, the Golden Gate Bridge, Saucelito beyond and can gaze down upon the beautiful yachts. Such a treat. The service is excellent, the food and drinks delicious and there is a delightful menu for children. The dining room and facilities are sparkling clean. I cannot speak to the cost of the food or drinks because, as guests, we were not shown the tab. The atmosphere is friendly and classy which is not always the case in private clubs. We have been to the Golden Gate Yacht Club numerous times for tango dancing and I cannot overstate what a pleasure those evening were. .
This is for people who already have their own boats and it's for networking and socializing. It's not for sailing lessons or taking out boats if you don't own. I can tell you this.
Golden Gate Yacht Club lives in the shadows of the St. Francis YC, but ever since Larry Ellison joined the club and annointed it as the challenge club of the record for the America Cup, the GGYC has been on a resurgence. I've only stopped by here a couple of times and ate here once. But it seems to be a nice club and friendly. Food review: Acceptable. Dine here for the fellowship - you want ambiance and fine cuisine, go up the jetty to the St.FYC for chris sake...
My friend had her wedding reception here this past weekend and I thought it was a great venue. Sweeping view of the bay, friendly staff, interesting location (a bit difficult to locate), and food wasn't too bad. Hors d'oeuvres: two kinds of hummus, pita, shrimp cocktail, and bruschetta. Dinner: beef, chicken and salmon skewers, cilantro rice, mashed potatoes (tasted like boxed potatoes), olive tapenade with polenta, two kinds of salads, fruit skewers. The only thing on my plate that I couldn't stomach was the olive tapenade with polenta. Wow. That just did not blend well in my mouth. It got pretty stuffy upstairs, but once the windows were opened and the bay breeze came in, it was really comfortable. It's a great place to have an event like a wedding reception or maybe some kind of reunion type shindig. Mellow and pretty.
There are several club boats available for use: dingies, and two small keel boats. And, club sails on Sundays!
Jim, the GM, is a righteous and so is the ginger bartender. Sorry for everything, fellas. Peace and Love!
I volunteered here for a Toys for Tots fundraiser. What a great old school yacht club! The attendees and the staff were all nice people. Beautiful views and really comfy feeling. I poured a drink for Larry Ellison but I didnt recognize him right away. I thought he looked like one of the Baldwin brothers. Love the old black and white pics of the Commodores, dudes look like studs. Maybe someday I'll get one of those little Italian boats with a steering wheel and a cool Captains hat. I hereby announce that I would like to be a member.
I wanna be on this wall someday!
Lovely location with amazing views of the Golden Gate and the city. Very friendly staff. Sunday brunch is perfect.
for my brother's wedding reception, it was held here. Amazing crew that worked here. Very helpful and friendly. The views were UH-MAZING! perfect view of the golden gate bridge and alcatraz. The food served was just as amazing. No one can match this wedding reception.

YKP SAN FRANCISCO
YACHT KLUB POLSKI SAN FRANCISCO (Yacht Club of Poland San Francisco) was founded in November of 2000 as a chapter of the Warsaw-based Yacht Club of Poland. The Yacht Club of Poland was established in 1924 as a nation-wide organization with the right to create affiliated clubs in various locations. The club was dissolved during the years 1951-1956. In 1959 individual chapters gained organizational autonomy, acting in association with numerous clubs under the Main Council in Warsaw. The Yacht Club of Poland has over 1600 members, and its fleet consists of 600 vessels. One of the founders and first commodores of the Yacht Club of Poland was Mariusz Zaruski, a Brigadier-General in the Polish Army , and pioneer of Polish sports yachting.
Continuing the long and rich tradition of the Yacht Club of Poland, our mission is to extend its activities to the San Francisco Bay and open our membership to all those interested in sailing. It is our goal to further develop conditions conducive to the cultivation of sailing traditions, perfecting sailing skills, and sailing camaraderie.
