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

Byng Inlet to Wright's Marina
