About this business
Often referred to as “the cleanest boat yards I have ever seen,” we are Chicago’s premiere boat facility, with 8 buildings on 11 acres of land, and over 300,000 sq.ft. of indoor heated storage – with plenty more outdoor storage space. Our location at the intersection of Ashland Avenue and the South Branch of the Chicago River offers us over 600 feet of river frontage, making us the most accessible full-service nautical facility in Chicago.

I've stored here for many years and never have had any major complaints. The new ownership has done a great job giving a good value for the cost. I've had them detail my boat while in storage and have always been amazed at what a great job they do. I also find them to be very honest and fair with any mechanical work they've done. I've asked their advice on a number of items and I find they are concerned about me as a customer not about trying to sell me something.
What a difference a year makes! CYW brings in a new service manager and THINGS GET DONE - 180 degree improvements in customer service, overall helpfulness, and most importantly COMMUNICATION... Ownership (Rob Hannah) has made big strides to deliver a top of the line facility. Keep up the good work CYW.
Boating in Chicago is not easy! Trailers... Boats... Storage... Service... There is a lot to do. We have been using Chicago Yacht yard for 2 years now and have been happy. The reason we are writing this review is because recently they went above and beyond to help us out. After a long day of getting the boat, launching the boat, and dragging the trailer to their facility through chicago traffic we finally got our trailer at their facility.
As a seasoned Chicago boater, I expect and received superior service from the new Chicago Yacht Yard team. There have been MANY changes in the last 2 years and most recently some new staff additions as well as new website functionality allowing boat drop-off and haul-out forms, a ship store, and great photo gallery. They also now carry several new lines of boats including Nisi, Comittee and Fairline. Hats off to Rob and the new crew for doing an outstanding job!
The BEST place to store and service your boat. They always take great care of us, like one big family. My husband and I have been storing our 62' with them for years now, and I am pleasantly surprised with the value and friendliness of all their services.
Earl, need I say anymore? This guy knows his boats. We came from Cincinnati to purchase our boat and after one season, we are very satisfied. So, if your in the market for a great boat, then go see a great salesman, Earl.
