20 Passenger Captained Party & Event Boat in Chicago
We had so much fun with Captain Jerry and Steve! We rented the boat for a bachelorette and the boat was perfect for moving around and hanging out. It was raining a bit and we were able to be under cover for that time. Steve and Jerry were so attentive and wonderful to ride with. I will definitely be looking to rent with them again!
