Knoxville Cycle Boats
Looking for some unique summer fun? Launched in 2021, Knoxville Cycleboats offers a one-of-a-kind way for groups to explore and enjoy the scenic riverfront of its namesake city during private cruises. Founded by Chicago entrepreneur Ron Silvia, Knoxville Cycleboats is the first out-of-state offshoot of parent company Chicago Electric Boat Company. In Chicago, Silvia acts as one of the city's foremost authorities on boating and river recreation, serving as a member of the Chicago Harbor Safety Committee and President of Downtown Docks, and plays an active role in the city’s continued waterfront developments.
Equipped with individual pedal stations and a motor assist for smooth sailing, Knoxville Cycleboats’ twenty-person vessel provides a fun and unique setting for nautical group outings and celebrations on the water with family, friends or co-workers. Cruises are captained by a licensed professional and include a deckhand on board for assistance along with US Coast Guard-required safety gear. Their newest vessel, the 21-foot Luxury Duffy, offers parties of up to 10 the opportunity for self-guided adventures out on the water. For all cruises, guests are encouraged to bring their own food and beverages to enjoy while cruising the river to a soundtrack of their choice courtesy of the boat's user-friendly Bluetooth sound system.
Knoxville Cycleboats launch from Volunteer Landing Marina at 956 Volunteer Landing, Knoxville TN 37915. Cruises can be scheduled Wednesday to Friday from 11 a.m. to 7:30 p.m., Saturday fro m 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 7:30 p.m, with special Tennessee Volunteer Football Game Day hours.
