   44' Sea Ray Express Luxury Motor Yacht Rental in Chicago

   We rented a boat in Chicago yesterday for my sister’s bachelorette party, and overall had a great time! First off, Max was an amazing captain — very friendly, helpful, and professional. He made us feel comfortable and ensured we had a smooth ride. The boat itself was clean, spacious, and had a nice downstairs area with a bathroom. We loved being able to lounge on the Lilly pad raft and enjoy the sunshine on the lake! That said, we were disappointed by the lack of transparency with the charges. Before the trip, we were not informed that a 20% automatic tip ($400) would be added on top of the nearly $3,000 we paid, which already included a $300 “service charge.” We had assumed that service charge was the gratuity. We fully intended to tip Max ourselves after the trip, but instead felt blindsided by the pre-added gratuity. The communication from both Get My Boat and the boat company could have been much clearer, and we were never provided with a full contract to review ahead of time. While we had fun and appreciated Max’s service, the surprise charges left us feeling taken advantage of. Transparency is key, and I hope the company addresses this for future customers.

   We had a great time out with Captain Memo! He was very friendly and warm. We went out for a birthday. It was too chilly to get in the water but we were so comfortable on the boat enjoying the sun. When we’re back in town we’d love to go out on the water again with Captain Memo!

   46' Spacious Portofino Party Yacht in Chicago For Every Occasion

   What a great time!! We rented Kyle’s boat for a bachelorette party and 10/10 would recommend to another group. There were 12 of us and we had plenty of space between the front, back, and inside of the boat. Captain Dan was fantastic and we would recommend him as well! Overall a great experience and our favorite part of our bachelorette weekend! Definitely would rent again!!

   We had the best time with Captain Memo! He’s so nice and fun, and made the whole trip such a great family outing. Quick to respond and flexible with scheduling, which we appreciated. Can’t wait to go again next year when it’s warmer!

   Captained Charter this 36' C & C Cruising Monohull in Chicago, Illinois

   Sailing with Nijole and her husband was an incredible experience! From the start, they were very responsive in communication and flexible with our requested times, even allowing us to extend once on the water. Their knowledge, warmth, and passion for sailing made the trip both safe and fun, with stunning views that we’ll never forget. Highly recommend!

   Just like the namesake of the boat, our experience with Captain Memo was truly Unforgettable. If you are looking to create life long memories with friends, this is the boat for you. Captain Memo was generous and kind and the boat had such a homey vibe. The experience made me feel like I was in a movie, and I recommend this trip to anyone who is looking for a little magic in their lives.
