We're honored to once again be part of Shimmer on the River, the Detroit Riverfront Conservancy's largest annual fundraiser!

This unforgettable evening features live entertainment, stunning riverfront views, and the perfect way to end the night a sunset cruise aboard Diamond Jack's River Tours.

There’s something truly special about seeing Detroit's award-winning riverfront from the water as the sun begins to set. Whether you're a longtime supporter of the riverfront or experiencing it for the first time, this is a night you won't want to miss.

Best of all, every ticket purchased helps support the maintenance, programming, security, and accessibility of the Detroit Riverfront, ensuring these beautiful public spaces remain available for everyone to enjoy.

Captured by one of our deckhands after a long day of storms. Detroit glowing through the haze, the river finally settling, and the crew still moving strong into the night.

Sometimes the best views come after the weather clears.

Right beneath the Ambassador Bridge, the Federal Shimanto slows just enough.
The J.W. Westcott pulls alongside, steady and precise. Delivery handled in minutes. No docking. No delay. Just a quick exchange in the middle of the river.

Mail delivered… while underway.

It’s one of those moments most people would never believe if they didn’t see it yet it happens every day, quietly keeping the river moving.

Captured by Captain Mike Nicholls.

Today we pause to remember the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to our country.

We’re reminded that freedom comes with sacrifice, and we honor those who never made it home.

Captain Steve shares a look inside one of the most important spaces aboard the newest tug where long days on the water turn into a few hours of rest before the next job begins. Tight quarters, hardworking crews, and stories built into every wall.

Life on a tugboat isn’t glamorous… but it’s real, hardworking, and full of history.
