The Electric Boat Company

The Electric Boat Company offers a distinctive way to bring people together on Seattle’s Lake Union. Organisers can hire comfortable electric boats for private celebrations, corporate outings, team building sessions, sightseeing cruises and informal networking events, creating an experience that feels relaxed, social and different from a traditional venue.

The fleet includes several boat styles suited to different group sizes. Standard boats accommodate up to ten passengers, luxury boats provide space for up to twelve, and open-air electric catamarans are available for smaller groups. The boats are easy to operate, with a short safety briefing provided before departure, so no previous boating experience is needed. Enclosed and heated options also make the experience suitable in cooler or changeable weather.

For organisers planning a larger occasion, multiple boats can be combined to create a shared on-water event for several teams or groups. The company also provides a dedicated large event request process for corporate bookings, helping planners discuss dates, boat requirements, duration and additional services in advance.

Optional extras can make the cruise more structured or memorable. A GPS-guided audio tour introduces guests to Seattle and Lake Union, while the tablet-based scavenger hunt turns the outing into a friendly competition involving clues, challenges and team scores. Onboard catering is available for selected bookings, with options including charcuterie, cheese and fruit, vegetable platters, desserts, wine, beer, seltzers and non-alcoholic drinks. Guests may also bring their own food and beverages.

With a waterfront departure point, city skyline views, flexible boat combinations and event-focused add-ons, The Electric Boat Company is a strong choice for organisers seeking an informal Seattle venue with built-in entertainment and team interaction.
