Located on the Detroit River, which separates Lake Erie from Lake St Clair, Detroit offers lots of opportunity to explore right from the waterfront. Hit the water on your private Detroit boat rental from Sailo…
Although you probably don’t think of Detroit as a sailing destination, the city’s location between two lakes makes it perfectly placed for some water based fun. Both Lake Erie and the smaller Lake St Clair offer lots of options for sailing excursions throughout the summer months.
In fact the waters around Detroit are actually some of the busiest in the world, with the Detroit River seeing more traffic than the Panama Canal! That’s not to say there aren’t more sedate areas for you to explore with a Detroit river boat rental, and in fact Lake Erie has some beautiful islands such as Put in Bay and, on the Canada side, Penlee Island which can be reached by boat.
Further north in Michigan, Traverse City is a popular place to spend the summer months on the water. Explore the smaller lakes at your leisure, such as Traverse Bay, Elk Lake and Torch Lake with your private party boat rental.
Fun on the lake
In the summer months, Torch Lake sandbar is where the crowds flock to enjoy the cooling waters. This shallow area attracts pleasure boat trippers of all types, so jump aboard your private party yacht charter from Traverse City in northern Michigan to be part of the action. Every year on the 4th July there is also a fireworks display to accompany the festivities and the best way to see it is, of course, from the deck of your own Michigan party boat rental .
Being on the water, you don’t necessarily have to get wet to have fun. Hosting your private event on a chartered party yacht rental in Detroit is one way to put on a show with a difference. Sailo offer a great choice of party boats for all occasions, including weddings, birthday parties, corporate events or any other private function. Your guests will love the unique setting and the opportunity to get a different view of the city from the water.
Gone fishing...
Looking for some peace and quiet? One of the best things to do in Michigan is head out on a fishing boat charter in Detroit or Traverse Bay to see what you can reel in. There are actually plenty of quiet places to go fishing, and with a private fishing boat charter you’ll have the freedom to go and find the best spot. The local fish, the walleye, has seen a resurgence in population in recent years, so heading out with your rod in hand you’ll very likely find your own catch of the day.
Whatever you’re planning, you’re sure to have a fun time on board your chosen Detroit river boat rental or lake yacht charter with Sailo!
Detroit Yacht Club
One of the more interesting and historical places in Detroit is the Detroit Yacht Club, located on Belle Isle. The building, restored in the 1920s, is constructed in the style of a Mediterranean Villa and today hosts a selection of restaurants and bars. Visiting boaters are welcome, although there is a dress code in certain parts of the clubhouse. Mooring your Detroit river boat rental at the Detroit Yacht Club for a few refreshments during your sailing trip around Lake Erie or the river is a highlight of any day out on the water.
Pointe Mouillee State Game Area
A few miles south of Detroit you’ll find the Pointe Mouillee Nature Reserve, which is an area of protected wetlands. From land, it makes a great place to walk or fish, but from a Detroit river boat rental you get a whole different perspective. As part of a fishing boat charter, you can spend a few hours or a whole day taking in the serenity and enjoying the sport of fishing from the deck of your private boat. Is this the perfect way to unwind? There’s only one way to find out....
Private Yacht Party
Whatever the occasion, a private event on board a Detroit party boat rental is an awesome way to throw an unforgettable shindig. Weddings especially can be made even more special with the reception on board a luxury Detroit River boat rental. But any party looks good on a boat, so take a look at our inventory of luxury yachts and party boats in Detroit for all kinds of special events.
The Lake Erie Islands
A few hours south of Detroit, in the middle of Lake Erie, is a small archipelago of islands. Put in Bay, Kelleys Island and Ile St George are the best known of these islands, and they make a great destination for a day trip aboard a Sailo yacht charter from Detroit. Many day-trippers will make a loop around the islands then head back to the city, but by mooring for a few hours you’ll be rewarded with a welcoming smile, some great refreshments and a look at the laid back lifestyle on the islands.

Tarzan: Signe Baumane
I'm a big fat fan of Signe! I love her art and her style! I thank Bill Plympton (king of independent animation) for reccomending her! Signe was born in Latvia. She received a BA degree in Philosophy from Moscow State University in 1989. Eight months after giving birth to her son she was checked into a mental hospital and diagnosed as manic-depressive. Despite the diagnosis, Signe made 3 animated short films in Latvia before moving to New York in 1995. In New York she continued to work in the field of animation and made 12 more award winning animated shorts. Her films have been accepted at Sundance, Berlin, Annecy, Venice, Tribeca and hundreds of other film festivals around the world. NOW SHOWING: “Rocks in My Pockets” is her first feature film project . check website for info. www.rocksinmypocketsmovie.com
Whale: Mike Storey
Downriver kids: directed by dan rose.
Dan is a long long long time friend of mine. Way back in the late 70's we were "Downriver Kids" bombing around the Detroit River " in a 13' whaler with a 50 merc." It was very impotant to me that Danny direct this video. Not only because He is mentioned in the song but so is our dear departed fellow soldier in chaos Bill. Bill and I were also appearing in the home movies Dan was constantly making at the time. This video is true to the style and feel of that time and it just feels right. Dan has always been my "weirdo hero". By example he inspired me to be unafraid of the creative spirit, because good lord...he sure as hell wasn't! visit Dan at www.waynecountyramblin.com
"Lucy skidmore"
Alex & Lindsay Small Butera Creators of the internet sensation "Baman Piderman" series. I have been a fan since the 1st Baman Piderman and I believe I might now be thier #1 stalker. Alas i try not to stalk them too much as i believe them to be true ninjas. These two extremely talented artists are not destined for greatness, because they already are. They took this project on and kicked it's ass. I'm a go stalk them right now! www.smalllindsay.com , www.coroflot.com/alexbutera
Rocks & Toads: Kyle Stein
In recruiting for this project i googled something like "animated music videos." somewhere in that search I found the GREEN DAY - NUCLEAR FAMILY - [ANIMATED MUSIC VIDEO] CONTEST WINNER." Animated by Kyle! I LOVED what he did and stalked him by email. He's a college student in pittsburg pa with a BIG future! His work for this project is Phenomenal. www.thedreamblock.com
Perfect Day: Kev
Creator of viral internet animation monster http://killfrog.com Kev and i have been friends for twenty years. He is not just loud or abnoxious or consumed with ignoring and or drinking lots of beer and peeing on authority. He is all that x infinity! He makes godzilla eat grass on the playground. He is Kev. warning: do not approach without a sacrificial beer and a sense of humor. seriously...don't!
My OLd Lady: John Paine
Wow, i love this guy. He is sick, twisted, very smart and all Pro! He nailed it. He contributed to this project all the way from Australia! If i ever visit the kangaroo capital of the world i'm gonna buy this guy 900 beers and then we are gonna go spear fishing for great whites on the Great Barrier Reef because that's how he rolls. Dont believe me? www.youtube.com/user/johnroderickpaine
Deep end: Bill Plympton
Two time Oscar nominated King of Independent Animation. There was never a question as to who would animate the song "Deep End." The question was...how do we get a hold of Bill PLympton? Turns out my old friend Ken Mora had the introduction skills to make it happen! I've been a big fan of Bill since his MTV days! He was great to work with and I love what he did for this project! He also reccomended Signe Baumane for the "tarzan" song! Bonus! check out his latest feature film " Cheatin'" here: www.cheatinmovie.com
"Be with You" and "Four old Ladies":
Don Greger Jr. and Tom Hinchliffe These two guys took the most "sensitive" song and the most "atrocious" song and hit a bases loaded home run on both! Tom is from the UK and Don is US. They make a pretty good team and as you can see from the above photo they are Art Warriors of the highest caliber and they don't give a flying fig if you believe that or not. I would love to hang out with these guys but i am positive (mostly because of Tom) that we would be arrested and then hidden from the civilized world for eternity. A risk i am willing to take! www.youtube.com/user/Flashgitzanimation
White Rabbit: Oliver Age Twenty-four
Oliver will eventually bring the whole world together in peace love and harmony through his teachings. He can teach you to do stuff "really good." Especially music and drawing. Oliver Age 24 is the most professional 3D, 4D and 5D+ artist on YouTube. He produces a wide range of videos from drawing tutorials, to catchy music videos.Some people say that he is the greatest artist that ever lived, he actively encourages these claims. I firmly Agree with "some people." www.youtube.com/user/HowToDrawReallyGood

Michael is the owner and operator of the premier award winning recording studio in Grand Rapids Michigan, Makinaw Harvest Music. He loaded up the truck and transported all the equipment necessary to make a "rekahd" way up north, in a couple of tiny cabins, on a river, in the woods. Mike played some acoustic, tele, B3, harmonica, some background vocals and various other objects. Michael has been a good fishing buddy and a great friend for many years. www.mackinawharvest.com
Jagoda: Drums
...and anything else you can hit! I met Jagoda the day he drove his rental car down a long dirt road to two little cabins on the river way back in the woods. He exhaled visable relief when I answered "yes..this is it." I assured him that not "all" of the mobile homes he had passed were meth labs and no...99.999% of them will not give a crap that you are a Jew from the Bronx. long story short...Jagoda is a tremendous, phenomenal and brilliant musician! And really fun to have around. When he is around...the sun shines brighter.
Jason Rafalak: Bass
Jason is the "Peaceful Badass." He provided the "balance" to what could have turned "Deliverance" at any moment. Every morning you could find Jason on the porch, eyes closed, swaying with his bass, adding a complimentary smooth groove the sounds of the woods and river. What a gigantic pleasure to have him around and on this record.
Joe Shields: Strat
He had a guitar strapped to his back and did not look dangerous. I picked up "Jojoe", as he does or does not like to be called depending on the day, hitchhiking north. He did a lot of set up and tear down work for the project and we paid him in food. He also turned out to play a mean guitar player so we added him to a couple tracks. Good kid. Stole my truck and we aint seen him since, but still a good kid. Got potential.
Mitch Lock: Production Assistant
Nosey Local kid floated up on what he referred to as his "love boat." We put him to work with Jojo. he was a hard worker. On a trip to town, Jagoda noticed Mitch's picture on the post office wall, brought the Sherrif back to camp, but mitch was gone. So was my truck and all of the beer.
