A pre-charter guide - So you can maximize your time on the water.
Arrival Time
Please plan to arrive 15–20 minutes early. Marinas can be a bit of a maze, and there’s always someone who ends up at the “other harbor.” Arriving early gives us time to get you onboard comfortably without cutting into your cruise.
Your charter time begins at the scheduled start time — not when the last guest arrives — so the earlier everyone is there, the more time you’ll have underway.
Provisions & Ice
If you’re bringing drinks, food, or ice, please grab those before arrival. Last-minute stops tend to take longer than expected, and we don’t want a bag of melting ice to be the reason we’re still at the dock.
Passenger Manifest
All guests must be listed and sign the manifest prior to departure. This is required for insurance and safety. We cannot leave the dock until it’s complete.
Guest Count
The vessel is licensed for a specific number of passengers. For safety and compliance reasons, we cannot exceed that number — even by one.
Gratuity
Industry standard gratuity for the captain and crew is typically 15–20%, and is always appreciated if you feel they’ve delivered a great experience. They work hard to make your day seamless.
Weather
If there are unsafe conditions, we will always prioritize safety. Light clouds or typical wind are part of boating — but in the event of severe weather, we’ll discuss options together.
⸻
The goal is simple:
Arrive early.
Board smoothly.
Depart on time.
Maximize your time on the water.
You’re investing in an experience — and my job is to make sure every minute of it feels effortless. - Ben

Yacht math.
For the price of an overpriced dinner in West Loop at a restaurant (that’s probably going to close in two weeks) you and 12 friends can be on a yacht on Lake Michigan.

No one talks about how hard it is to go from lake days & skyline views ➡️ layers & shivering 🥶
We feel your pain! Just 3 months until endless sunshine, lily pads, and warm waters 🌊😎. Mark your calendars for the start of boat season—May 1 🗓️ .
