Founded by Ron Silvia and the late Greg Krueger, the Chicago Boat Company has grown to over a dozen vessels in only 5 years. Since opening our doors in April 2012, we have had the pleasure of introducing over 100,000 guests to the beauty of Chicago and the thrill of captaining a boat on the River. We are touched that passengers have chosen our boats as the preferred venue for celebrations, events, meetings, marriage proposals and even weddings.
