It is moored at Pier 35 on the Embarcadero and is open every day of the year from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. The page says the whole ship, from engine room to flying bridge, is open. Tickets are sold at the booth on the day, with lower prices for seniors, students, juniors and military. An overnight program for school and youth groups runs most Fridays and Saturdays.
