Waterways Cruises and Events operates on-water dining and event experiences in Seattle, delivering meals and entertainment aboard four luxury yachts. The service highlights seasonal menus, scenic routes, high-quality service, and varied entertainment options that cater to a range of occasions. The company hosts weddings, corporate events, special celebrations, and public dining cruises, serving about 60,000 guests annually. The company was founded in April 1994 by Hilton Smith and Shirley Turnbow, initially as a hobby offering yacht entertainment charters that soon became a full-time private cruise venture. It is based in Seattle, Washington, and has expanded to operate four yachts. In October 2019, Waterways announced the appointment of a new executive chef, marking a notable recent development.
