The SeaRay 35’ Sundancer is one of the nicest charter boats in Chicago. The boat is over 35’ feet long and very wide and heavy which makes the ride even smoother in all conditions. The boat has A/C, 1 Bedroom, 1 large Bathroom, 2 refrigerators as well as two sinks, plus a large cooler out in the seating area, a huge dive platform, a nice padded sundeck up front. We also have a four-person blow up raft for people to enjoy while swimming in the playpen.

The boat is perfect for groups up to 12 people.

We started the famous Chicago Scene Boat Party in the Playpen over 20 Years ago. Nobody knows how to have a better time in the playpen than us.

Playpen Trips – We were one of the first boaters to party in the Playpen and continue that every weekend in Chicago. We know the best places to anchor so you have the least amount of waves from other boats.

Fireworks from Navy Pier: On Wednesday & Saturday nights we offer Sunset & Fireworks cruises.

For groups larger than 12 people you can reserve our other boat and go up to 24 people. we have a Searay Sundancer 51 and can do a “Tie-Up in the Playpen” Please book those larger trips early before we get all booked up.

· Chicago River Cruise – Hanging out at City Winery

· Bachelorette or Bachelor Parties

· Anniversary Cruises

· Special Occasions Cruises
