A New Era of Yacht Co-Ownership
SeaNet is proud to announce the official launch of its Chicago & Great Lakes fractional yacht ownership program, introducing a refined, intelligent approach to luxury yachting in one of North America’s most dynamic freshwater cruising regions. For more than two decades, SeaNet has been a trusted leader in fractional yacht ownership, providing discerning clients with the opportunity to co-own professionally managed, crewed luxury yachts at a fraction of the cost of traditional ownership. That same proven model now arrives on Lake Michigan, serving Chicago, Michigan’s western shoreline, and Wisconsin’s eastern coast including Door County.
SeaNet offers a sophisticated alternative to full yacht ownership. By acquiring a fractional share, owners enjoy the privileges, prestige, and access of yacht ownership, without the operational burdens. Our Chicago-based yachts are fully managed and professionally crewed. Each vessel is meticulously maintained, detailed, fueled, and provisioned before every outing. A licensed captain oversees navigation and safety, while our concierge team ensures every experience is personalized to your preferences. There are no maintenance concerns, dockage logistics, staffing challenges, or scheduling conflicts. Owners simply arrive, step aboard, and enjoy.This program is ideally suited for individuals and families who value time, appreciate sound financial planning, and seek the lifestyle benefits of yacht ownership without the administrative demands.

Chicago by Water: Skyline Views & Signature Events
Few cities rival Chicago’s dramatic skyline and vibrant summer boating culture. From the water, the city transforms into a private waterfront playground.
SeaNet owners enjoy:
- Elevated access during peak weekends, including Memorial Day, Fourth of July, Labor Day, and Lollapalooza
- Cruising alongside Chicago’s iconic skyline
- Anchoring in the Playpen for swimming and social gatherings
- Transiting the Chicago Locks for an architectural cruise along the Chicago River
- Private viewing of Navy Pier fireworks every Wednesday and Saturday evening
- Premium vantage points for the Chicago Air & Water Show
Extended Cruising Throughout Lake Michigan
What distinguishes the Great Lakes from most urban boating markets is the seamless combination of metropolitan energy and extended destination cruising.
SeaNet’s program allows for five-day extended journeys, offering owners the flexibility to fully explore Northern Lake Michigan and beyond. Owners may elect to position the yacht in Northern Michigan for extended periods to experience the region’s celebrated summer season.

The Chicago yacht market continues to experience steady growth, particularly in the 60–80 foot luxury segment. Full ownership often requires a multi-million-dollar capital investment, in addition to annual operating expenses that can exceed ten percent of the vessel’s value. SeaNet fractional ownership significantly reduces upfront capital requirements while preserving lifestyle access and ownership privileges. Shareholders receive guaranteed usage, professional yacht management, crewed service, and effortless walk-on/walk-off conveniency, all while maintaining financial efficiency.
SeaNet’s expansion into Chicago and the Great Lakes represents an exciting evolution in luxury freshwater yachting. Whether enjoying an evening cruise beneath a glowing skyline or embarking on a five-day voyage to Mackinac Island and beyond, owners experience the very best of Lake Michigan, thoughtfully curated and professionally managed!

The Sunseeker 68 Manhattan combines sophisticated design with practical luxury. Featuring a highly sought-after four-stateroom, three-head layout, expansive panoramic windows, and Sunseeker’s signature Beach Club with hydraulic swim platform, she’s built for entertaining and effortless time on the water. A 25% fractional share offers a smart path to ownership, reducing costs while providing structured annual usage and professional management. Based in Chicago, IL or Traverse City, MI, this immaculate 2023 Sunseeker 68 Manhattan is your opportunity to enjoy the yachting lifestyle without the full-time commitment of sole ownership.
