Milwaukee Duffy

If you were born in 1988 or earlier, you do not need a Boaters License,  just a valid Drivers License.

 If you were born in 1989 or earlier, (under 30) you need to complete your boater safety course online, info here

The manufactures tag line is "as easy to drive as a golf cart". We have found this to be true. Your don't have to be a seasoned skipper to enjoy our Duffy Boats.

Yeah there is a 3rd party skipper service you can use, they are $35 an hour, more info here.

That's totally fine, we can add or subtract people to your reservation at check in. We will make adjustments to your price at check in. Keep in mind we do have a 4 person minimum (6 person minimum on Saturdays). So if you have less than the minimum at arrival we will charge the minimum rate. 

BYOB and food allowed, we have a big yeti cooler and provide ice for you. Boats have a sound system that can be connected via Bluetooth, so bring a good playlist. 

Boats launch from the Cooperage Building Docks, 818 S. Water Street, (Boone and Crockett Cocktail Lounge). Most groups will head north and do the Milwaukee River Loop up to Lakefront Brewery and back.

This is our 4th season and we have realized the perfect amount of time to do the entire Milwaukee River Loop is 90 minutes. It takes 90 minutes to go all the way from our location to the northern point of the Milwaukee River (Lakefront Brewery) or up to the Harp, dock there and make a quick 15 pit stop to grab a round of drinks / bathroom break.  We can add time if we have schedule flexibilty/

Yes, the Milwaukee River has great options. We even have dock space reserved at the  Harp for our other boats, the Paddle taverns, so our staff will help land you, and it's in the mid point of the Milwaukee River Lap. 

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.
