I contacted Captain Joey back in February of 2022 for a June 2022 engagement charter. Long story short, my partner said YES! Everything about the trip was amazing with the only exception being that I got motion sickness about 20 minutes into the charter (be sure to take CJ’s advice when he talks to you about what to do to prevent this). CJ is a very laid-back, jokster type who really put me at ease while I was: 1. overcoming motion sickness and 2. Preparing to propose to my partner. He is batting 1000 when it comes to engagement charters so I’ve you’re looking to propose on a boat, CJ is your captain!

I booked this rental for a surprise wedding engagement and Captain Joey did a great job working with me. He helped come up with game plan to pop the question and he was easy to work with even when plans changed. He was also nice enough to play along with the charade before the question was asked to keep it a surprise. I was very happy with how everything turned out and would definitely recommend to others.

We chose Captain Joey for my first sail. There were 4 of us, plus our experienced captain. We had a 2 hour sail and he took us by motor power inside the breakwater and then outside the breakwater for sailing. It was everything I thought it would be - peaceful and a fresh breeze with beautiful views of the Chicago skyline. I would do it again, and I highly recommend it!

Our group of 5 ladies had a wonderful time on Lake Michigan with Captain Joey! The sailboat is beautiful, spacious and well maintained. From the directions to the dock to the actual sailing, Captain Joey knew how to make our trip great experience. The option to bring on drinks and snacks was very nice, and we enjoyed using the “picnic table” on the deck. This is a great way to enjoy the beautiful summer weather outdoors any time, but especially during the pandemic. We felt very safe on this private charter. We highly recommend sailing with Captain Joey!

We had a wonderful time with Captain Joey! The weather was perfect for cruising around and sailing. The Captain showed us beautiful views of the city skyline and there was never a dull moment on board. I would definitely book again with Captain Joey and recommend others to do so too.
