The Alcatraz Cruises Hybrid Ferry Fleet has redefined the profile of vessels on San Francisco Bay. As the nation’s first hybrid passenger ferry service, the fleet’s mission is far more important than its appearance. Alcatraz Clipper can operate on propulsion batteries alone for over an hour, providing a silent cruise around San Francisco Bay and leading the way in environmentally-friendly vessels and reduction in carbon footprint.
