By Land

Via I-80 from the East:

Take Highway I-80 West (towards Berkeley, Oakland, and San Francisco). Take the Richmond Parkway offramp (which follows Appian Way in Pinole). Turn right at the light onto Richmond Parkway (towards I-580). Go for about 5 miles and veer right onto Castro Street, towards I-580 (you'll see a large green freeway-type sign). Go another 1¾ miles to I-580. Get in the center or right lane to go under the freeway, and it will take you onto I-580 East to Oakland. Go about 1¾ miles to Marina Bay Parkway/South 23rd Street offramp (follows Harbour Way, Cutting Boulevard). Turn right at the stoplight at the end of the offramp onto Marina Bay Parkway. Go past one stoplight (Meeker Avenue), and the railroad tracks. Go ¼ mile further and turn right on Spinnaker Way.  There will be a sign saying "Boathouse" and "D Dock".

Via I-580 and I-880 from Oakland:

At the split going to the Bay Bridge, take I-80 East (It actually begins going North) towards Berkeley and Sacramento. Just past Berkeley's Gilman Street offramp, veer to the right and take the I-580 West exit towards San Rafael.

About 3¼ miles past the split take the Marina Bay Parkway/South 23rd Street offramp. Turn left at the stoplight at the end of the offramp onto Marina Bay Parkway. Go past two stoplights (close together - one is Meeker Avenue), and the railroad tracks. Go ¼ mile further and turn right on Spinnaker Way.  There will be a sign saying "Boathouse" and "D Dock".

By Water

The Marina Bay Yacht Harbor is located in the northeast corner of San Francisco Bay (before you enter into San Pablo Bay), and can be found on NOAA Chart 18653 (San Francisco Bay - Angel Island to Point San Pedro).

Lay a course to the entrance of Point Potrero Reach, located at GPS coordinates 37°54'37"N, 122°23'03"W. Head east down the Reach to the Point Potrero Turn, then head north into Harbor Channel. Do not cut across the open water towards the marina basin, as that area is shoal! We have a special "Mud Duck" award for skippers who run aground there. Continue to the red channel marker No. 18, then round the marker to port and head east past the old Ford Motors plant (large abandoned brick building) to the marina basin, staying to port of the line of three small red buoys. The marina basin has a depth of 12' to 20' with no known obstructions to a boat with an 8' draft.

As always, these instructions are not meant to substitute for a skipper's own prudent navigation, and no responsibility is assumed by the Marina Bay Yacht Club or its officers and members. Please consult your charts!
