Des Plaines River Marathon

Boat Rental

The following information is outdated - still to be updated for the 2021 race. 
To date the following liveries can be contacted to arrange for boat rental. As more liveries become available we'll add their names and contact info.
Note: people wanting to rent boats are responsible for making their own arrangements.
Be sure to confirm reservation for a rental craft by phone to the livery operator to assure that there will be a craft awaiting you at the Marathon or Minithon Start.
