Big Boat with plenty of social distancing space!

I booked with Chris for my husband’s 40th birthday. We had a great experience. Chris was prompt and responsive during the booking process and accommodating. The Mainship 39 was awesome and clean and the perfect size for me, my husband and our son. Our captain was Cortney. He was awesome! He was knowledgeable about the architecture, he taught my son to throw the life ring (to save a life) and he was an easy conversationalist. I’d totally book again.

Chris was extremely accommodating, helpful and quick to respond. The boat was great, clean, and as looked as advertised in the photos! We had an amazing time on our trip and can't wait to get back out on the water.

Rented out Big Blue from Chris and it was such a beautiful and amazing experience. Chris was great as well as our Captain. Definitely will be doing it again! The boat was beautiful and super clean. Great communication the whole time with everyone. Honestly one of our best experiences! Highly recommend to anyone who is trying to have an awesome fun time with family and friends, get in contact with Chris and prepare your selves for a great time!

We had a great time. We had 5 teenagers on the boat and all of them had a great time. Captain Jimmy was really nice. It's a fun activity to do in the summer. Its a lot of money for four hours but during Covid its a great socially distant escape.

We celebrated my mom’s birthday yesterday on Chris’s boat and had an amazing time! The booking process was easy and the boat ride was beyond perfect. I selected William Russell to be our captain and I highly recommend him as well. Don’t hesitate to book with Chris. It was the best social distanced birthday activity I could think to do. I can’t wait to do it all over again!

Chris’s boat was amazing! They were polite, helpful and we all had a great time!

We had the best time on this boat! The whole renting process was seamless and straight forward. The owner, Chris, was very responsive and got back to me right away with all my questions. The boat was beautiful, very spacious, and clean! Captain Patrick was amazing, would definitely recommend! Overall we had a fantastic experience! Highly recommend this boat and Captain Patrick :)

We had the BEST time celebrating a 30th birthday on Big Dog with Captain William! The boat is beautiful and certainly large enough for a small group of 6 to take adequate social distancing measures. Chris and Captain William took care of everything and it really felt like a mini vacation from reality. I would love to rent Big Dog again in the future!

Chris was great and super timely with a last minute boat rental! Our trip was put together for a professional setting with a group of creatives and everything was smooth sailing. ;)

The Boat was beautiful and clean. Capitan Marty was an excellent guide and host. Our Boat ride was definitely the highlight of our vacation thanks to these guys. Thank you again and we will see you again next year.

Chris and captain Patrick were great! Very straight forward and we’ve had a great time. Looking forward to next year for another trip!

We had a great time and everything was so easy! Chris did a great job communicating throughout the process and the boat is awesome. We’d definitely go again.

Chris was incredible. He made the whole booking process very easy. He met us directly on the boat with our captain to sign all paperwork. His boat is in great condition and was perfect for our group of 12. We booked only 3 days in advance and he was able to help me put everything together within 48 hours. I would definitely book with Chris!

Chris was very responsive and helpful throughout the process. He was at the boat when we arrived to make sure the handoff went smoothly.

6pm right

So much fun! Thank you!

Our group of 11 adults rented Chris's boat for Saturday evening of the Chicago Air and Water show. Chris was great with communication and even though our captain backed out last minute, he helped me secure Captain Pat two days before our trip! Captain Pat was great and the boat had plenty of room for all of us! Great experience!

My group and I had an absolute blast on Chris's boat during the Air and Water Show. This boat was perfect size for a party of 12! It had tons of space! We really enjoyed the float pad as well! Chris made it super easy to reach him and was quick to respond with any and all of my questions. I highly recommend renting the Mainship 39 Express!

Thanks chris! You made it so fun and seamless. Would definitely rent again!

Chris is the best! Made the whole process super easy! The boat was amazing and our captain Patrick was super nice! Will definitely book again, no doubt! Can’t wait to do it again next summer 😎

Our bachelorette party had a blast on the Big Dog! It was a perfect day out on Lake Michigan. Chris was great and was very quick with response time. We had Derek as our captain and he did a great job with our group. I would definitely rent from Chris again and use Derek as our captain!

Renting from Chris was a great experience! The boat was the perfect size for our party and Chris was incredibly helpful and responsive throughout the booking process.

Amazing experience as always!

We were in town for a bachelor party and rented Chris’ boat for a 6-9pm cruise. The boat was the perfect size for our party of 12. We had a great time cruising the shoreline and visiting the playpen. The Chicago skyline was an incredible sight at night! Chris and our captain were very friendly and accommodating. Would highly recommend if visiting the city!

Great experience planning leading up to the boat and the day!

We had a great time! Chris was extremely responsive and our captain Will was super fun and accommodating. The boat was clean, fun and fast! We had an incredible time with our family and friends. We will be renting again and using captain Will again. The experience was smooth, fun and professional.

I rented this boat with 11 cousins/friends for 4th of July. It was the perfect size for all 12 of us. We had a great time and Captain Pat was amazing. I will definitely be booking this boat again.

My group of 11 had a FANTASTIC time on Chris’s boat! It was perfect for what we needed and included multiple coolers, floaties, and Bluetooth speakers. Chris was very communicative and provided all necessary information upfront—there were no surprises. Our captain Patrick Gosciminksi was also fabulous. He was very helpful and fit in well with our group of folks in our mid-twenties. I would absolutely rent from Chris again! Thanks for everything!

We had an amazing time and are so thankful we were able to get out on that day! Thank you to Chris for an awesome experience on a fabulous boat! :)

You won’t regret renting this boat!! Took this baby out on the 4th of July and it was absolutely perfect! Boat was in great condition and fit 12 adults very comfortably. Already making plans to rent again! Chris was very responsive and made the whole process seamless. Thank you!

The boat was exactly what we were looking for and was the perfect size for the 9 of us. We had an amazing time and didn't want the day to end!

Thank you Chris. My team had a wonderful night, great boat, great customer service by you setting things up. Capt. Jason was amazing, I would request him again and again. Cheer and thank you again.

We had a great time on Chris' boat! Perfect amount of space for my sister's bachelorette party of 10. Chris was quick to respond to all of my questions and our captain Pat was so fun!

Chris and Captain Patrick were amazing! They kept in constant communication and were professional and friendly and provided a wonderful experience for our group. The boat itself is amazing and offered plenty of seating for our party of ten. The weather was actually cooperative as well and made the experience that much more memorable! I would gladly rent again from Chris!

We couldn’t have asked for a better time in the playpen! We rented 2 of Chris’s boats and tied them together for the day. The captains be arranged for us we’re a lot of fun and well organized. I would definitely choose this boat again!

Chris was perfect! This boat was amazing for a bachelorette party of 11 girls just looking for a nice day on the water with some booze and snacks. Coordinating with Chris was easy and helpful. The forecast was looking like rain but cleared up and everything worked out.

We rented the Mainship 39 Express for my birthday for 12 people. The boat was much larger then the pictures showed and we had plenty of room to move around. It was very comfortable and had a great sound system, I couldn't have asked for a better time at the Playpen. Chris was very easy to get in touch with and communicated very quickly when I had any questions. Thanks for providing a fantastic time and an unforgettable experience.

Chris was very responsive during the planning process and the boat fit our every need. Would definitely charter again next time.

Patrick was a great captain, the boat was clean and the perfect size for our group.

Awesome boat. Excellent communication with Chris. Our group had a fabulous time and we look forward to booking this again in the future.

Chris was great to work with - very helpful and responsive. The boat was much bigger than expected. Fit 12 of us great.

We had a great time on Chris's boat! He was extremely helpful and easy to book with and always got back to me quickly and answered all of my questions. He set us up with a great captain to take us to the Play Pen for the morning. Would highly recommend renting from Chris!

Had a great time on Chris’s boat. He was easy to coordinate with and connected us with a steller captain to take us out on Lake Michigan for the day!
