We have Two of the Best Private Charter Party Boats in Chicago.

We offer two beautiful powerboats that can take a total of 25 people out together on Lake Michigan. A 51′ Searay Sundancer and a 35′ Searay Sundancer boat that can accommodate a lot of guests. We can bring both of our boats together so you and your entire group can do a “Tie-Up in the Playpen”. Summer in Chicago without spending time with all your friends in the Playpen should not be missed. Please book your group trips early before we get all booked up

Charters can range from going to the world-famous “Playpen” where we can anchor and crank up the sound system and go for a swim or chill on our rafts to cruising along the lakefront and by Navy Pier. You can also take a trip through the “Locks” and down the Chicago River or some blue water cruising past the Chicago Lighthouse, the cribs of Chicago, and into the deep blue waters of Lake Michigan and taking in some of the best views of Chicago

Chicago Sailboat and Yacht Charters provide our guests with exclusive, private charters that offer complete luxury, flexibility, and customization. Take your friends & family on a cruise and experience Chicago like you never thought was possible a priceless adventure.

On Wednesday & Saturday nights we offer Sunset & Fireworks cruises just off of Navy Pier.

Experience firsthand the relaxing beauty of a peaceful sail on our 4+ hour and all day Private boat Charter. Boating in Chicago is the perfect way to end the day with friends. Maximum of 12 guests on a boat.
