Had a great time with Captain Al & Monica. Charter before us was running behind, and I appreciate being allowed the time we contracted for. Everyone enjoyed themselves and left in great spirits. The city backdrop was breathtaking, and the fireworks were the finale. I would definitely rebook again.

Mike helped me pull off the ultimate surprise for my parents for Father’s Day! Extremely responsive and great communication throughout my entire rental inquiry. I had many last minute requests that they took care of immediately! Can’t recommend Nick/Mike enough! Captain Al & Wendy were also THE best during our ride. They handled everything including cleanup and making our ride as smooth & enjoyable as possible! Super chill and laidback but extremely knowledgeable and reliable captain! Can’t wait for more rides this summer!
A wonderful experience, absolutely loved every bit of it. Michael made himself available whenever I reached out to him with my concerns. Had a great time with Captain Al. Superb, would definitely reach out to Michael again when I am back in Chicago!!!

This was my 3rd or 4th time renting with Mike and he exceeds my expectations every time!! Communication was seamless, the yacht was sanitized/cleaned, and overall Mike was the shit! I will continue to book with him in the future as he and Stacey made our guests completely comfortable ? Thank you for a good time Mike and Stacey 🥰
Awesome experience for our “First Ever Ladies Yacht Cruise.” We had a blast at the play pen, would have liked to go further, but the water was very choppy (next time). Anyhow, Danny & Michelle were awesome. Danny, the Capt’n did an excellent job helping load our many items and Michelle knew all the good locations and angles for taking perfect photos. Michael was very responsive and was a pleasure to speak with. Hope to see you again in 2023. Bon voyage!!! 💯
I am excited to be a part of the GetMyBoat movement in making boats more accessible and affordable to others. I hope to get out on the water more and help boating grow!
You’ll get directions to the departure location when you make a booking.
Full refund up to 10 days prior.
