Martin,

When approaching the entrance to SF's Golden Gate, avoid the urge to cut the corner on the north (Marin County) side. You'll wind up in the infamous Potato Patch. If you're well offshore, enter into the shipping lane and cruise on through. Also, beware of tugs with tows... they're quite common into and out of the Gate.

Depending on where you're docking, Schoonmacher's Marina in Sausalito is nice, and walking distance to the downtown area where a visit to Smitty's (local pub) might be in order
