To Byng Inlet, Wright's Marina,
on Georgian Bay
Homes along the Trent-Severn |
The Trent Severn Waterway is many lakes connected by canals |
Swift Rapids Lock |
Tall sill on this one |
The famous Big Chute Marine Railway |
Drive the boat on to the submerged carriage |
The boat is stabilized by straps as carriage moves up the tracks |
Lifts you completely out of the water and transfers you 650' across land and 50' down and back into the water on the other side. |
India Jayne on the trolley |
Our props looked good; keel showed some wear |
Rocks both sides, very close |
Cottage on it's island. There are thousands. |
A narrow cut afterwards |
Starport Marina at the Severn (last) Lock Parked us almost in the front door. |
View at Starport, Port Severn above the lock |
Passing Pt. Au Bareil after anchoring at Indian Cove and Hopewell Bay anchorages, then out into the big water. |
Georgian Bay, going "outside" to Byng Inlet |

Interesting all the different lift designs.
The cottages look inviting. Be nice to stay at one....in the summer.
