Captain Matt Shroka

Hi, I’m Matt! I’ve been captaining in Chicago for five years, with extensive experience in the boating industry overall. While I originally studied biology intending to pursue a medical career, my love for the water led me to dedicate my life to boating. I focus on providing a safe, smooth, and enjoyable experience for all guests, whether it’s a relaxing cruise, a family adventure, or a fun day out with friends.

When I’m not on the water, I enjoy dining out, attending music shows, and snowboarding. Every charter is personalized to your group’s preferences, from exploring scenic Chicago waterways to visiting popular anchor spots. Bring your favorite snacks, drinks, and essentials, and I’ll make sure your day on Lake Michigan or the river is memorable, relaxing, and full of fun.
