Perfect for Special Events or to Simply Relax

Aegir Expeditions offers unique half and full day charters aboard our 48ft yacht with captain and crew for up to 6 passengers. You and your guests will enjoy the breathtaking sights of a world class city as we sail along Chicago’s lakefront. Perfect for a special family event like a birthday, anniversary or wedding, entertaining clients, corporate team building, or to simply get away and relax with friends for a few hours.

Weekend Sailing Vacations and Getaways!

The perfect get-away, our 2-, 3-, and 4-day weekend charters and sailing vacations visit the quaint resort towns along the shoreline of Lake Michigan. Leaving from, and returning to, Chicago’s Monroe Harbor, you can enjoy the ride or help sail our fully equipped 48ft luxury yacht. Sailing by day, we'll spend the afternoons and evenings walking around town, dining out, and enjoying cocktails in the cockpit under the stars. You decide—it's your time!

Thunderbirds, Blue Angels, and Leap Frogs—Oh My!

It's one thing to watch the Chicago Air & Water Show on TV or from the shoreline—but what about from our 48ft luxury yacht! Avoid the crowds and watch the show from your own, private, front row seats as the U.S. Navy Blue Angels, U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds, and U.S. Army Parachute Team Golden Knights perform overhead! Is there a family member or client that loves the air show—this is truly a unique experience they'll never forget!

Weekday or Weekend Evenings—It Never Gets Old

Set on the shores of Lake Michigan, the Chicago Skyline is arguably one of the most beautiful and unique. But to view it on a warm summer evening with the sun setting behind it from a boat is a real treat not many people get to experience. Join us for a sunset sail aboard our 48ft luxury yacht and enjoy the breathtaking sights of this world class city!

Set Your Course by the Stars, Not by Every Passing Ship

Join us during the new moon each month and come star gazing with us out on Lake Michigan, away from city lights, aboard our 48ft luxury yacht! There's nothing like the experience of a sailboat sliding through the water under sail at night and looking up at the sky blanketed with millions of stars illuminating the deck of the boat and the ripples on the water.
