Sadie Ann: Custom Programs and Events

Charter Sadie Ann for Custom Programs and Events

Sadie Ann may be rented by individuals, organizations or business that need access to a vessel or to waters of the St. Louis River and western Lake Superior for events, trainings, team building activities or promotional activities. Staff at the Lake Superior Research Institute are available to assist in the development of custom programs.

Sadie Ann has a capacity of 49 passengers, and the cabins on the main and second deck may be configured in a variety of ways. All three cabins have air-conditioning and heat, as well as large display screens and audio systems to support presentations. The front deck has benches, and the rear deck has a moonpool and two small platforms that provide direct access to the water.

When conditions are favorable, Sadie Ann can cruise at 12 miles per hour, allowing for a circumnavigation of Park Point in approximately 1.5 hours, or for efficient travel to other locations as desired.

A blue and white boat named SADIE ANN is docked by a concrete pier on a sunny day, with railings, upper and lower decks, and water in the background. The words DIESEL ELECTRIC HYBRID are visible on the side, hinting about its eco-friendly technology.
