The boat

Why should you book with us?

+ We are the most experienced boat rental company in Chicago - Check out our profile to see that we have been renting boat through Boatsetter since 2013.

+ Our boats are professionally cleaned between all rentals

+ All boats are highly equipped for rental - multi-zone bluetooth sounds system, sun pads, swim platform, high-capacity coolers, full bathroom

Captain: This is a recreational vessel so you will need to hire a captain directly. We provide a pre-approved Captain contact list, but you have your choice of who to hire. We recommend budgeting $80-$100 per hour plus gratuity. You may hire a different qualified captain through our owner-approval process.

Fuel: Fuel to the playpen is included. A river cruise must be coordinated in advance with owner and will require a fuel fee.

Water Toys: We have a large inflatable raft (similar to a lily pad) available for rent for $85.

What to Expect: Loved for its large open seating layout, your whole group can sit together in the cockpit. This 40 foot vessel is affordable and extremely popular - see all of its reviews! We have two of these boats and they can be rented together for larger groups up to 24. Bring your own food and drinks.

Weather: If you are unable to use the boat due to dangerous weather conditions or heavy sustained rain, (actually happening at time of rental, not based on forecast conditions) you can elect to either reschedule at no charge or to receive a 75% refund of the boat rental rate.

Tie Up Policy: Tie ups are prohibited due to U.S. Coast Guard guidelines for rental boats. Any attempt to tie this boat to another boat during charter is cause for immediate termination of the rental with no refund and forfeit of all security deposits.

Location: We are docked at 31st street harbor which is about a 10 minute taxi from downtown. There is paid parking available nearby.

I've spent most of my boating years in the Great Lakes in the US and Canada. I've owned my 40 foot sailboat for the past 5 years and have sailed her on trips throughout Lake Michigan.
