And if you\u2019re in the mood for a drink, you can either BYOB, drinks and snacks, or the rental can provide that for you. They also offer two boat options, pontoons or a yacht. Pontoons don\u2019t require captains, meaning you are the driver (as long as you are 21+ and have a valid driver\u2019s license) and they are super easy to drive. Chicago Boat Rentals will even train the driver so they know exactly how to operate the boat. Yachts require a crew and will be purchased\/booked separately.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One thing to keep in mind when you are booking your reservation for a rental boat in Chicago is refunds. The organization does not offer refunds, even if it is raining. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They operate even if it\u2019s raining. The only way it could be canceled is if the manager deems that the weather is too dangerous. In that case, you can reschedule or receive a gift card. If you must reschedule, a $20 fee will be issued if 48 hours before the reservation, $50 if 24 hours before, and $100 if on the same day.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Also, something else to keep in mind is that if you are renting a pontoon boat, they are only allowed to be driven and enjoyed on the Chicago River. The lake is too dangerous for pontoons and can cause them to flip over. So, don\u2019t try to be the hero because if you\u2019re caught on the lake you could be issued a ticket by the Coast Guard or fined by CBR.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As with any boat rental in Chicago, there are certain fees that will be assessed if something goes missing. SO be sure to check out their <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/chicagoboatrentals.com\/questions\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">website<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. If you are worried about something, it is recommended to purchase their $15 insurance.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So if you\u2019re interested in scheduling a rental for a boat, visit <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/chicagoboatrentals.com\/boating-options\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">here<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to view your boat options and check on available dates. Pontoons cost anywhere between $275 to $489 for two hours. And a yacht charter costs $1200 for 3 hours on the river and $2500 for 5 hours in the playpen\/ Lake Michigan. It is recommended to visit the website to check for additional fees, if any.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"sbi-embed-wrap\">\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media sbi-embed\" data-instgrm-captioned data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/COLVkbqhscu\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF;

Boat Setter is a company where you can search online and get connected with boat owners to reserve a time to take THEIR boat\/yacht out. This is not a physical location in Chicago, it\u2019s almost like AirBnB but for boats. I wanted to include this because I think we all know that Memorial Day is going to be busy and you might not be able to book a boat through one of the other companies. This is a great alternative to that.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Rentals include insurance so you know you are safe. If you don\u2019t have experience driving a boat there is an option to be connected with the captain and crews as well. You also don\u2019t need to be a \u201cmember\u201d of Boat Setter to be able to rent and drive the boat. To drive you must be 25 years old, have a boat setter account (free to join), no criminal convictions, no driving convictions, and no boating insurance claims against you. Below you will also find a price breakdown of fees associated with renting:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Boat price: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is the rate price the owner sets for a booking.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Captain fee: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All bookings with a captain include a captain fee at checkout unless specified otherwise (in which case the captain may request being paid at the dock). This fee is reflected in the price of the booking when a captain is selected.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Renter service fee: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A service fee is charged on each rental. The service fee is applied to the price before any coupons or credits are applied. This fee helps Boatsetter provide a safer and more secure booking experience, as well as dedicated customer support throughout your charter.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Renter insurance fee: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While all boats have rental insurance, select boats may require additional insurance to book. This fee helps cover the cost of insurance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Taxes: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some US states require Boatsetter to collect a tax for rentals that take place in those states.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Security deposit: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A security deposit is held on the renter\u2019s card to cover any incidental damage or lost items. The hold is placed on the card 48 hours before the rental and is released 48 hours following the conclusion of the rental if no claim has been filed.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Visit <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.boatsetter.com\/a\/boat-rentals\/search?action=map&amp;lat_lng_ne=42.07981916504967%2C-87.34057601464741&amp;lat_lng_sw=41.62051618640642%2C-88.04370101464741&amp;length_max=30&amp;ne_lat=42.07981916504967&amp;ne_lng=-87.34057601464741&amp;near=Chicago%2C%20IL%2C%20USA&amp;page=1&amp;sort_by=recommended&amp;sw_lat=41.62051618640642&amp;sw_lng=-88.04370101464741&amp;sem_account_id=8093455181&amp;sem_campaign_id=10899936654&amp;sem_ad_group_id=121578493633&amp;sem_device_type=c&amp;sem_keyword=%2Bboat%20%2Brental&amp;sem_matchtype=b&amp;sem_ad_id=523243795673&amp;sem_network=g&amp;sem_target_id=kwd-20416791675&amp;sem_feed_item_id=&amp;utm_source=google&amp;utm_medium=cpcnb&amp;utm_term=%2Bboat%20%2Brental&amp;utm_content=&amp;sem_location_id=9021604&amp;sem_placement=&amp;sem_placement_category=&amp;utm_campaign=TS:TX:NBR:DEM:US:IM:Chicago:SVGO:X:Boat:Rental&amp;gclid=Cj0KCQjwna2FBhDPARIsACAEc_WKCM1HS8Jh1t4ZDOO4vjiSiOvX0Lx4qhymssXmhL7S6N8qDO0x1IgaAuwLEALw_wcB\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">here<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to sign up for a free account and see a list of boats available to book in Chicago.

You can find a boat that is available to rent based on search criteria. Renting a private boat is great because you can avoid typically crowded boat tours and find a large range of boats, from motorboats to large catamarans to set sail in and around Chicago.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In Chicago, boat charter prices range depending on a variety of factors. Such as the age and size of the vessel, the duration and the season of the rental, as well as if additional requests are made such as captain, crew, and water sports equipment. So when choosing the right boat for your trip, be sure to consider these to stay within your budget.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pontoon boat rentals in Chicago start at $280\/2 hours and may accommodate 8 guests. Rent the largest chartering catamaran in Chicago for $1000\/day suitable for 13 people. Motorboat rentals cost about $3,100\/day with 12 people on board- the perfect party boat! On Lake Michigan, the average cost of a fishing charter starts at $900\/day for 6 guests. If you are looking for an adventure, diving charters start at $130\/diver.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Visit <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.clickandboat.com\/us\/boat-rental\/search?cmp=boat&amp;gclid=Cj0KCQjwna2FBhDPARIsACAEc_WP5IIkDvLgwt0oYn2v0dUE60GszrnDSFho1mIdE-xhLISkGNEnrR8aAhSJEALw_wcB&amp;where=Chicago,%20United%20States&amp;_nbKm=100&amp;_tri=Selection&amp;TypeNavigation=With%20or%20without%20captain&amp;DateDebut=2021-05-28&amp;DateFin=2021-05-28&amp;_page=1&amp;hasDiscount=0&amp;superOwner=0\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">here<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for a complete list of available boat rentals for Memorial Day weekend.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Memorial Day celebrations are this weekend and you might be thinking about enjoying the recently warm weather on the lake.
