Initial data
A witness was hoisting a line of crab traps off Furlong Island with his dog aboard his 25-foot (7.5 m) boat. Leaning over the side, the dog began to bark furiously.
The witness looked up and saw a huge triangular object hovering above him, completely silent. Then the witness was hit by a beam of white light, and he fell back on the sole of the cab. He grabbed a Rugger 10-22 rifle with a 100-round magazine and started firing at the bottom of the object. The witness was apparently able to turn off the lights.
As he took the second clip, he saw a hatch open at the bottom of the object, and two people leaned over and shouted:
"Stop shooting at us, you idiot."
He also heard a hissing sound, like air escaping from a flat tire. Then the object moved to the south. Then a helicopter appeared and hovered over the boat. The helicopter was a flat black color, silent, without any markings. As the helicopter hovered in the air, a flash of light was directed at the boat.
The last time he saw it, the triangle was rising and disappearing to the south. The helicopter was last seen heading towards the Golden Gate Bridge.

Summary: The witness was hauling up a line of crab traps off Farlon Island with his dog onboard his 25-foot boat. While leaning over the side the dog began barking furiously. The witness looked up and saw a huge triangular shaped object hovering above him, totally silent. Then a beam of white light hit the witness and he fell backwards onto the sole of the cabin. The grabbed a Rugger 10-22 rifle loaded with a 100 round magazine and started firing at the bottom part of the object. The witness was apparently able to shoot out the light. While grabbing a second clip, he saw a hatch open up on the bottom side of the object and two persons leaned down and yelled “Stop shooting at us you idiot.” He also heard a hissing sound resembling air escaping from a flat tire.

Hypotheses
Airplane / Helicopter

An aircraft heavier than air for flights in the atmosphere (and outer space (e.g. An orbital aircraft)), using the aerodynamic lift of a glider to keep itself in the air (when flying within the atmosphere) and the thrust of a power (propulsion) installation for maneuvering and compensating for the loss of total mechanical energy to drag.
A rotorcraft in which the lift and thrust required for flight are created by one or more main rotors powered by an engine or several engines. They differ in maneuverability, the ability to hover and almost vertical takeoff.
