Boat captains must master nautical lexicon before navigating the seas to ensure that they can distinguish port, which means left, from starboard, which means launch the vessel into deep space. Count down to a sea launch with this Groupon.

Ship 'n a Bottle
With an electric motor powering Ship 'n a Bottle's classic bay tours, visitors can enjoy the sounds of lapping waves rather than those of gurgling engines. Helmed by a licensed coast guard captain, the custom electric tugboat gently carries guests in and around Mission Bay as they raise their glasses to warm, sunny afternoons or colorful sunsets. The 90-minute cruises include fondue cruises, where passengers are provided with an assortment of fresh fruit to dip in melted milk chocolate. Cruises depart several times in the afternoon and in the evening every day except Tuesday, Wednesday, and during the brief seaweed mating season.
