BEHIND THE SCENES | A LITTLE BEACH ADVENTURE!

Sometimes the best adventures are the ones without much of a plan!

We're digging into more of our summer footage, and this time we're taking you along for a ride aboard our Zodiac RIB as we head out to the beach for a little exploring and some drone photography.

A beautiful day on the water, a stretch of beach, and a chance to capture Detroit's waterfront from a completely different perspective.

One of the things we love most about what we do is getting out on the water and discovering something new. Sometimes it's a sailing adventure, sometimes it's a little exploring, and sometimes it's just finding the perfect spot to launch the drone!

We're finally getting around to sharing more of the adventures we captured this summer, and we've got plenty more coming.

Our Detroit Charter Company YouTube channel is up and running! Follow along for more behind-the-scenes adventures, sailing, racing, and life on the Detroit River.

BEHIND THE SCENES | A DETROIT RIVER FIELD TRIP

Sometimes you just have to get out of the office and go exploring!

Margot, Jackie, Briana, and Kent hopped aboard our Zodiac RIB for a little Detroit Charter Company field trip down the river.

Our destination? A visit with the Detroit Fire Department to get a firsthand look at their fireboat and hear about some exciting plans for its upcoming modernization, including bringing its traditional analog systems into the digital age.

It's always fascinating to see what's happening behind the scenes along Detroit's working waterfront. There's so much history, innovation, and opportunity right here on our river.

We didn't capture much footage of the fireboat itself, but we brought you along for the ride!

We're finally getting around to sharing some of our adventures from this past summer, and there's plenty more to come.

What if your wedding weekend included a sunset sail aboard a 70-foot yacht?

Imagine celebrating with your closest family and friends, sailing along Detroit's beautiful waterfront, with the skyline as your backdrop.

At Detroit Charter Company, we believe the most memorable weddings aren't always the biggest. They're the ones filled with extraordinary experiences.

Aboard HYDRA, our 70-foot sailing yacht, we offer a truly unique setting for your wedding celebrations.

Whether you're planning an intimate ceremony, a rehearsal celebration, a welcome party for out-of-town guests, or a relaxing post-wedding gathering, we can help make your wedding weekend unforgettable.

With room for up to 38 guests, HYDRA offers a private waterfront experience unlike anything you'll find at a traditional venue.

And yes, these are real wedding photographs from celebrations aboard HYDRA this summer!

We're now welcoming inquiries for the 2027 wedding season.

Your wedding deserves more than just a beautiful venue. It deserves an unforgettable experience.

There’s a certain luxury in having nowhere else to be. No schedule to keep, no destination to reach. Just the boat, the water, and the simple pleasure of being right where you are.

Some moments are best left unhurried.
