Windy City Sailing
By Kim Brown
Fall/Winter 2010
Imagine sailing the Chicago Lakefront, hand-in-hand with the one you love on a private bed and breakfast yacht. Relax underneath the stars and catch a fireworks show on Lake Michigan or escape to comfy lounging under the deck in ample natural lighting.

Comfort and performance are the important characteristics of Windy City Sailing, specializing in bed and breakfast service on luxury sailing yachts and private sailboat charters on the Chicago Lakefront. Yachts depart at Belmont Harbor located on the north side of Chicago. Step aboard the 40-foot 2004 Nebula, a sloop-rig Beneteau 393 with your certified U.S. Coast Guard captain and prepare for a romantic evening and morning sail.

The private charters are fully accommodated with two staterooms and king-size beds, climate control, bathrooms with full showers, a dinette area trimmed with a mahogany table and leather seating, a kitchen galley and natural lighting and ventilation. The cockpit and swim deck provide additional space and enjoyment options.

Private charters rent by the hour and hold a maximum of six people. The bed and breakfast service allows for a private evening and morning sail for two or four people. Take in the beauty of the Navy Pier Fireworks package including a skyline fireworks show on Wednesday and Saturday nights through Labor Day weekend.

You can cruise the city for boat-side events such as the Chicago Air & Water Show, Chicago Jazz Festival and Tall Ships Festival, or sail down to Charter One Pavilion at Northerly Island for a concert.

Thinking about taking a knee and proposing to the woman of your dreams? Windy City Sailing specializes in such occasions. You’ll surprise her with this romantic getaway. Complete with a perfect skyline, it’s a night to remember.
