August 2023 • group-trip Party

We just had a charter with KMBC on Friday, and had an absolute blast! It's truly always one of my favorite days of the year. All of the captains have been so great to work with, and the views of the Chicago skyline from Lake Michigan & the Chicago River are unmatched. The boat itself was spacious, clean, comfortable, and came with every amenity we could have asked for. Would recommend chartering with KMBC for an unforgettable summer day!
