Labor Day Weekend 2017 Chicago River Boat ride

[@ronlaurafilarski2023]

Thanks for this! Our first year having the boat at the 31st Street Harbor. So funny to see it on video. The river is the next goal. :)

What is the lowest/smallest clearance on the bridges? Some of them looked pretty low.

[@MotorboatinInLamansTerms]

Not sure what the height is but most powerboats will clear. Sailboats would have problems. My VHF antenna clears and its about 17' above the waterline

Which boat ramp is this I want to use it this year, How much to use it?

[@MotorboatinInLamansTerms]

We launched at the 31st boat ramp...I think it was $20 to launch, then, you have to pay again to park your truck and trailer at the Marshaling yard over by the McCormick Center.

Wheres this dock at ?

[@MotorboatinInLamansTerms]

LillJunior we put in at 31st harbor, then went through the lock to the Chicago River.

I like your videos. Were you able to find parking for your truck and trailer at 31st St. harbor? The website states only 14 truck/trailer parking spaces. I'd hate to drive that far and not be able to park.

[@MotorboatinInLamansTerms]

Yes...we parked the truck and trailer at the Marshaling yard for the day

I enjoyed your video of Chicago River. Looking to do that in this summer. We just got our new boat big enough to go on the big lake. We boat Clinton, Shelbyville and Lake of the Ozarks. Check out our channel.
