Santana


One of my favorite boats on the bay is the Santana. A wood schooner built back in the 30's, her lines are as impressive as her history. She had many owners over the years, however, her most famous was Humphrey Bogart. He hosted the elite of Hollywood on his yacht and won many races. She is now in the hands of one of the partners of the boatyard KKMI here in the bay area. She has been painstakingly restored to her original glory and now sails the bay. Here is a great vid on the history of this storied vessel.
