Mirene is a beautifully restored, working 64-foot tugboat built of wood in 1912. She is also an exquisitely appointed houseboat berthed in Sausalito. Her location, with its view of San Francisco, gives her easy access to cruise on the Bay. In 1982, an extensive renovation began by the San Francisco visionary polymath & creator of the Whole Earth Catalogue, co-founder of the Well & the Long Now Foundation Stewart Brand & his wife Ryan Phelan. With abundant Sausalito maritime talent, they brought Mirene back to life first as a respectable houseboat & then as a proper yacht cruising the Bay Area from Sausalito to the Sacramento Delta & out the Golden Gate. Mirene has a warm varnished wood interior, elegant functionality, & carefully organized interior space which epitomizes the passions of its owners - a gourmet kitchen for entertaining large contingents of neighbors, family & illustrious guests, & a commodious library/salon to hang out in. This is a rare opportunity for an adventurer who yearns to live outside the box, who can thrive in compact environs & appreciates the richness, texture & energy of a free-spirited lifestyle. It comes w/ a 15' Boston Whaler tender, an exceptionally large berth & option to purchase the small houseboat next door if privacy is desired.
