We had an incredible time with Knockout Charters! The boat was super nice, the sound system was great, and the crew along with Captain Chris were top notch! If you are celebrating a birthday and you want a nice night out on the water, this is the charter! We will be back⚓️⛴️

I booked the cruise for a Scattering of Ashes Ceremony for My Mom, Captain Chris, Brooke and Denise were wonderful; they provided Me, Family and Friends an Memorable Experience…Captain Chris exemplifies customer service: professional, friendly, welcoming, caring; he goes above and beyond making sure your experience is enjoyable. He has a “heart of gold,” can be peace maker(during stressful situations) my daughter, when her GPS system, had failed, became very anxious, Captain Chris, patiently guided her to the boat, “she will always cherished him for that.” I will definitely utilize Knockout Charter services again in the future, hopefully for a more joyous occasion.

Captain Chris & the entire crew made our day! We booked a sunday pregame cruise for the Bears vs Cowboys on september 21st. We were able to board & sail around tailgate style for a couple hours before getting dropped off at Soldier Field for a 325pm kickoff. After the game we got picked up & had a nice 20 minute ride back to DuSable harbor. The vessel is amazing & they provided staff to bartend, etc. Awesome day! I highly recommend KnockOut Charters & will definitely book again in the future.

Our trip on captain Chris’ newest boat blew our expectations out of the water! We were celebrating 3 birthdays and captain Chris and his crew gave us first class treatment from the time we inquired about a trip to the time we departed. This trip is now a core-memory for all 15 people we had on board! We will definitely use knockout charter again and cannot thank Chris and the crew enough. We will cherish these memories forever!

I cannot recommend this company enough! We were blown out of the water by the service! We've rented many a boat in Chicago, we were expecting a captain and maybe one crew to help navigate the boat ... we arrived to Captain Chris and three crewmates who were the most helpful, kind, amazing crew to have! We were literally blown away. Brooke was so on top of it, Mariah was so sweet, Chloe was an awesome bartender. Their service was literally unparalleled, better than service I've had at restaurants. Coolers and ice were provided, the crew kept our coolers stocked and served all our food without us even having to ask. Captain Chris was AWESOME. He took us on an amazing tour of the city. He even brought us a doggie life vest for a service dog on our boat. Unbeatable service! Our family is already talking about booking this boat not only once but twice next summer. 11 out of 10 experience, can't wait to do it again.

1st time taking charter and did not know what to expect. 1st call, Chris answered right away and told me he will call me in few minutes. He did and he was very stright forward answering my questions. On the day charter, Chris and his crew were very nice and the weather was perfect. It was a prefect day on the boat.
