We got lucky to have good wind and had a true sailing experience. Captain Conway knew what he was doing and we always felt safe and in good hands. We would certainly recommend this charter to anyone looking for a sailing trip while in Chicago. We will be back!

We were very disappointed with our service with tikiboat Chicago.

This was terrible service as we could only use the boat on a Saturday and only had 2 weeks to find a different option. This was almost impossible as boats are booked well in advance for Saturdays in Chicago. Would highly recommend Sofia with Get my Boat if you have a party of 12 looking for a great time. I am giving 2 stars as they were initially easy to book with.

I booked a boat for 12 people this past Sunday, 8/22. I had been researching charter companies for…read moreliterally a month before booking, and Knot My Boat came out on top for price and charter times! After the captain fee, it was $2,000 for 4 hours. Most places charge that for only 3 hours. And this was the price during the air & water show! Additionally, the mid-level boat I initially booked was down for repairs, so the company upgraded me to a Luxe for no additional cost. Booking was incredibly easy online, and the company reached out immediately via email with instructions on how to book a captain. They also followed up often with reminders about parking, rules, etc. I thought the company's communication was great. Only booking complaint is that I wish they just provided a captain instead of making me do it. It wouldn't be difficult to just integrate a captain calendar system with their booking. My captain didn't respond to me after I paid or at all until immediately before the charter - I was really worried he would no-show and I would be held accountable. The boat itself was spacious and nice but not exceedingly nice. You can tell it's only used for charters, it's definitely not someone's personal boat, so a lot of stuff was kind of shabby. For example, the lights in the bathrooms didn't work, and all the cabinets didn't lock and would fly open every time the boat rocked. The seats were pretty torn and grubby. But listen - we didn't book this to sit in the cabin and chat, so it didn't affect our ability to swim or enjoy the fresh air. Just an observation. The full-size fridge, freezer, and cooler were fantastic amenities! I would consider using Knot My Boat Charters again, and it would be a no-brainer to book again if they were more helpful in booking a captain and holding him accountable for providing us with information leading up to the charter.
