The Fremont Avenue is available for charter year-round. Up to 42 passengers on Lake Washington, Lake Union and the Ship Canal. We can also take you out through the Ballard locks for a cruise to Elliott Bay.
Unforgettable occasions on the water
The Fremont Avenue offers a unique setting for any occasion. We charter for:
Parties—anniversaries, birthdays or just a gathering of friends and family
Weddings—make it an extra special day floating through the waterways
Memorials—gather to remember those who loved you and loved the water
Team offsites—get away from the office or shop for a great teambuilding experience
Events and festivals—boat rides for people attending your waterfront event
Flexible arrangements
We want you to have the best time that you can imagine. We are flexible about departure locations, decorations, catering, music and most any other part of your event. Captain and crew can jump in to help, or stay way in the background. Let’s work together for a great event.

Rates
We have two-hour minimum for most private charters. Friday and Saturday evenings from June through September we have a three hour minimum. Special events have their own timeframes and pricing.
Charter fees include an hourly rate for the crewed boat, plus docking fees and a gratuity for the hard-working crew. Rates are a bit higher for special events, and we may need to charge extra if we are cruising one-way or meeting your party someplace other than our base at Fisherman’s Terminal. Here are basic rates for 2024.
A 50 percent deposit secures your date, with full payment 30 days from the event date. We do offer a small discount for those paying by cash, check or Venmo.
Catering
Your catering can consist of anything from sandwiches or pizza all the way to full buffets. We do not have any preferred caterers, and you may use whatever catering service meets your needs. We never charge a commission or corkage.
Alcoholic beverages are fine as long as you get a state banquet permit (a simple online form). We offer a limited beverage service (beer, seltzer, soft drinks) for those looking to simplify their arrangements.
