POSTS STORIES REELS
Join us for an unforgettable day on the open seas! Embrace the spirit of Edmond Dantes and set sail on San Francisco’s most beloved historical schooner for a full 2.5 hours voyage around the bay as we celebrate the Count of Monte Cristo. Relive the themes of the famous novel as you imagine yourself gazing upon the castle prison of Chateau D’If as we sail past Alcatraz, our own famous island with history of daring escapes. Contemplate the finding of mythical treasure and plotting elaborate revenge as our crew tells us more about the local history and the parallels we can draw with Dumas’s work. Enjoy a fully catered Mediterranean luncheon in Gas Light’s cozy cabin, with alcohol-free drinks provided, and alcoholic drinks available for purchase at the bar. TICKETS: EARLY BIRD Member Tickets: $130, on sale NOW, ENDS MAY 31st. REGULAR Member Tickets: $150, on sale STARTING June 1st. Non-Member Tickets: $175, on sale STARTING June 1st. NO REFUNDS VENUE: Pick up Location: Gas Light will depart at 11AM from Marina Village Yacht Harbor in Alameda, and return by approximately 1:30PM. Food and Beverage: Fully catered Mediterranean buffet will be served. Unlimited non-alcoholic beverages are included. Costumes: The Count of Monte Cristo took place between 1815 to 1830s. Late Regency to Romantic era wear is very appreciated. Your wildest gigot sleeves and wackiest Romantic-era hairdo are much welcomed! Space & Safety: Please refrain from wearing large hoop skirts. Smaller corded petticoats are historically accurate for the 1830s and much easier to navigate on deck. Given the sea breeze, we recommend securing any hair ornaments and headdresses firmly to avoid them becoming kites! Shawls, cloaks, or other outerwear are also recommended. by @gbacg
