Reflecting on a Fantastic Summer and Looking Ahead to an Exciting Winter

As the last days of October draw near, we at Chicago Electric Boat Company are reflecting on an incredible summer season. From the joy of seeing families cruising in our Duffy boats to the unforgettable celebrations on the river, this summer has been one for the books. The Chicago River was alive with the sound of laughter, and our fleet of electric boats helped create memories for countless birthday parties, corporate events, and spontaneous outings with friends.

A highlight of the season was watching our guests embrace the river’s unique beauty, whether discovering hidden gems along the shoreline or marveling at downtown’s vibrant Art on the Mart projections. And who could forget the spectacular Navy Pier fireworks lighting up the sky as many of you cruised beneath?

But the fun is far from over as we approach Halloween and the official close of our summer season. We’re hard at work preparing the marina for our exciting winter rentals. Yes, you read that right! Chicago winters may be chilly, but that doesn’t mean the adventures must stop. Whether you’re planning a cozy holiday outing or a festive end-of-year event, our winter offerings promise a unique way to experience the city from the river’s perspective—bundled up and taking in the frosty beauty of the season.

Stay tuned for details on our winter rentals and how you can continue to enjoy the river; even when the temperatures drop with our boats, you’ll stay warm. We can’t wait to welcome you aboard for a winter wonderland experience on the water. Here’s to ending the year strong and starting the next chapter of river adventures together! ♨️
