Yankee Lady combines a private yacht charter with dining, entertainment and open-air Toronto Harbour views in one venue. The family-owned business was founded in 1984. Weddings, corporate receptions and private celebrations can be tailored with catering, bar service, décor and entertainment; the captain adapts the cruise route to conditions and event timing.
Yankee Lady provides a tailored proposal rather than a single published rental rate. Pricing depends on the date, guest count, event timing, menu, beverages, entertainment and other service requirements. Send those details to the events team to confirm availability, pricing, inclusions and booking terms. An enquiry does not reserve a date.
Yankee Lady is a crewed private event charter, not a self-drive boat rental.
