We did the Saturday night 8-11:00 pm cruise off and around Navy Pier. WOW. What a awesome experience drinks,dinner,cruising and fireworks off Navy Pier. After Brendan the 1st mate gave the 15 min safety meeting before boarding we were off cruising around the harbour. The captain was totally approachable even allowed me to stand in the pilot house ask him questions and he also endured some of my own boating stories. He was professional and I always felt safe while he was piloting the boat. Dinner was a simple menu of hotdogs,BBQ pulled pork,potato chips and Cole slaw with finger deserts such as cheese cake and brownies. The bar was open with mixed drinks,beer,wine and soft drinks.The ship was very clean.Her name was the Free Spirit. Very ship shape. Even the chrome was polished to a mirror finish. Restrooms were clean and toilets flushed. After the fireworks we headed back to the dock where we boarded, tight on our starboard side was the Coast Guard following us closely. After asking the captain why they're following closely he said they wanted free beer. They peeled off 10 mins later. We arrived at the dock. The crew thanked us....
Read moreListen. I booked this cruise for close family and friends. A way to fellowship and have a good time after such a challenging year of being in Covid and having to be apart. I wasn't sure what to expect but let me tell you. The cruise did NOT disappoint.
Captain Jeff was awesome. Gabby was awesome. And Lordy I forgot the name of the 3rd crew member but he was awesome. The food was delicious. The views were magnificent. The crew was welcoming and friendly. I literally could NOT have asked for a better way to spend the afternoon. It was relaxing and peaceful. It was small group so we was able to spread out and enjoy the cruise in our own ways.
It was exactly what was needed and I am so very glad to have the experience. If you're on the fence, let me help...
