The Boats

Easy To Drive

Not a seasoned boat person, not a problem the manufactures tag line is "as easy to drive as a golf cart". And our staff will help land and launch the boat. Anyone over 25 with a valid drivers license can rent. If under 34 (born after Jan 1 1989) per state of Wisconsin, you are required to take an online boaters safety course, more info here. or you can hire a skipper from Cream City Skippers, email them Creamcitycaptainsmke@gmail.com. 


Eco Friendly

Duffy Boats are Eco Friendly, Certified Zero Emissions. They use charged electricity instead of gasoline. Not only is this a massive perk for Planet Earth but the boats are silent in the water enhancing the overall boating experience

Milwaukee River

We launch from the south side of the downtown River District, a 90 minute rental allows you to do a complete lap of the entire downtown corridor, (up to the Harp Irish Pub and Back) which is such a beautiful an unique way to see the city from a new angle.

How long are the rentals, and where do we go?

We have found most groups like to go for 2 or 2.5 hours. It takes 90 minutes to do the Milwaukee River Loop, the extra 30-60 minutes allows time to stop at a bar along the way for a quick drink or backroom break, or do another mini lap. 

If you scroll down on this page there is map that shows our dock locations, it also has the bars along the river with docks.

What is the weather / cancellation policy?

We are very flexible, we want your group to have a good time. The boats have roofs, and the window can be zipped up and down quickly. So light rain isn't a problem. Please cancel at least 3 days in advance. On bad weather days we will connect the morning of to give the renter their choice of refund, rain check, or delay the start time.

The EPA estimates 30% of Boat feul ends up in the water ways from spills, leaks and exhaust.
