Boat Driver

Sheboatin' is looking for outgoing individuals to lead and drive our 10-person pedal boat tours in Elkhart Lake, WI between June and September.

If you’re wondering what that is, check out our website. www.sheboatin.com

Think of the party boat captain as a cross between a driver, a party host, and a tour guide all-in-one. The captain is the heart and soul of Sheboatin', perhaps of the city or even the universe itself. The captains are responsible for the fun and safety of our guests from start to finish; that they have an unforgettable, five-star experience each and every time they go out with us. For this, the captains are amply rewarded. (Most of our captains make $35-$50 / hour including tips!)

However, this job is not for everyone and we don’t hire just anyone. We need the best of the best, the connoisseurs of day and night life, the creators of conversation, and the holders of clean driver’s licenses and boater safety license. NO CAPTAINS LICENSE REQUIRED.

This is a great position for anyone with an outgoing personality or experience with entertainment, acting, or music also tend to be great fits!

Position Description: Captains are responsible for meeting and greeting customers and following through with the itinerary in a professional, entertaining and engaging manner. The position requires driving the boat as well as entertaining and ensuring the safety of our guests through calm control.
