The boat

This isn’t a listing.
This is a reality-check for charter shoppers.

Lake Affect is the only 65′ charter on Chicago’s lakefront built around what guests actually care about — ease, experience, and peace of mind. From the moment you step on, you’ll see why groups rebook year after year.

This is a professionally hosted, fully curated experience — and these are just a few things most other boats charge you for:

✔️ Pre-loaded with what your group actually uses
✔️ Float gear, toys, and extras included
✔️ Downtown departure from Navy Pier — easy access, elevated vibes
✔️ Crew that keeps the boat moving and the day flowing

This isn’t a “boat rental.”
This is a done-right charter, and it looks like it.
