he Lauritzen family has lived and worked on and around the Delta waters in the
Antioch - Rio Vista area for more than 100 years.
In 1905 Chris Lauritzen, Sr. and his
brother purchased a
32-foot boat to ferry
passengers from Rio
Vista to Antioch.
The ferry service
soon added regular
trips from Antioch to
Stockton and Sacra-
mento with stops at
all the major islands
in between. At one
point, they had a fleet of seven boats ferrying passengers and

SERVING THE BOATING
PUBLIC FOR 52 YEARS
Chris Lauritzen Sr. and his family often involved themselves
in public service works when tragedy struck. After the 1906 San
Francisco earthquake they ferried passengers across the Bay from
San Francisco to Oakland. Many times, they have worked to
reclaim Delta islands after levee breaks.
Today Lauritzen Yacht Harbor is operated by Christian A.
Lauritzen III and his sister Margaret.
These days Lauritzen Yacht Harbor, virtually situated in the
shadow of the Antioch Bridge, is one of the premier jumping off
points for boaters, sportsman and anglers exploring the vast West
Delta.
The harbor features a two-lane concrete ramp, both covered and
open births, dry boat storage, a gas dock, restrooms, showers, a
pump out station and both block and cube ice.
