The boat

Step aboard Silver Comet, a beautifully preserved 1962 Chris Craft Roamer, and experience the magic of the Chicago River like never before.

This classic vintage cruiser offers a cozy, intimate setting—perfect for taking in the city’s most iconic sights as the seasons change. As we continue cruising throughout the entire fall season, there’s no better time to explore the river, surrounded by the warmth of fall colors and the glow of Chicago’s architectural wonders.

By day, marvel at the stunning skyline and world-renowned architecture from the comfort of the deck. By night, enjoy the twinkling city lights, including a front-row seat to mesmerizing spectacles like Art on the Mart, all reflected in the stillness of the river—a truly unforgettable experience.

To ensure your comfort during the cooler autumn days, a brand-new heating system has been installed and is working beautifully. Throw blankets are also available to keep you warm and relaxed while you cruise in style.

You’re welcome to bring your own food and beverages, and a large vintage cooler—pre-stocked with ice—is available on board for your convenience. If you'd prefer something more curated, we’re happy to discuss catering options as well.

Additional onboard amenities include:

A full bathroom for your convenience

USB outlets throughout the boat—just bring your charging cables

A Bluetooth stereo system so you can enjoy your favorite music during your journey

Captain is knowledgeable and will help cater a cruise that will work for you.

Parking is simple and convenient, with access to an outdoor paid lot located at the south end of 800 S Wells Street
