Skyway Yacht Works came into being on October 1, 2004. They are located on the Calumet Ship Canal a little over a mile off of Lake Michigan on the southeast side of Chicago. With only 3 bridges to navigate, the trip to and from the yard is a snap. At 12 miles from Monroe and DuSable harbors, the trip can be made in an afternoon in a sailboat and about 40 minutes in a motorboat.

With a private slip off the Calumet, your boat is protected from ship traffic and the Skyway Bridge makes an excellent landmark.

Skyway offers heated storage and outside storage. For sailboats, there is no reason to step your mast, since the bridges all open and they open on demand 24-7-365.

Skyway is a family operation and has been from the beginning. They are Yanmar dealers, Kohler generator dealers, Certified Pettit applicators, and have extensive experience in diesel engine systems and MerCruiser drive assemblies.

Being a small yard, Skyway can be and is very responsive to customer requests with little or no notice. They have the ability to stop, drop, and roll in the event of an emergency or urgent work requests, such as an upcoming regatta or family vacation.

Give Skyway a call at 773-734-7777 and see how they can help you make pleasure boating easier!
