This family-friendly FREE show will once again highlight the latest technology, style, design, and construction features available from various manufacturers of distinctive styles of power and sail yachts in the Great Lakes market. Representatives from the participating dealers and manufacturers will be present to answer questions and discuss the features of the vessels that are open for touring during all event hours. In addition, indoor exhibitors in the Monroe Station Main Dining Room will display new boating technology, electronics and accessories.

All members of the Chicago Yacht Club, power, sail, cruise or racer, are invited and encouraged to attend this exciting event. The Club also invites all boat owners with a slip or on a buoy in the Chicago harbors along with individuals interested in learning about membership at CYC. The dealers cull their databases of boat owners and prospects and interested parties to attend. Each year this event has resulted in many new members joining the Club.

2023’s event drew almost 800 invitees who enjoyed touring more than 30 yachts from 13 participating dealers, free drinks and appetizers, live music, and indoor exhibits as well as a hands-on safe boating demonstration for the whole family. It was a perfect day with bright skies and warm weather.

Live music will be part of the event both days! CYC’s Chef Larry and the Club staff will serve complimentary hors d‘oeuvres and drinks to all attendees. We hope you enjoy this exciting event and your visit to the Club!

Mark your calendars today! Talk to your family, friends, dock mates and anyone who you believe would be a good addition to the Club, and have them save the date for the 2024 In-Water Boat & Tech Show. It promises to be even bigger, better and more exciting than ever!
