My 2018 Season Is Over
Heading out on the Gibraltar canal from Gibraltar Boat Yard towards the Detroit River.
I took a ride upriver as far as the Grosse Ile free bridge. Then I turned about and headed back downriver towards the marina. I pulled into an open spot by the boat lift. Boat will come out of the water later this morning.

Re: My 2018 Season Is Over
We are a group of boaters out of the Sandusky area, and enjoy going to Ford Yacht Club, Sugar, Celeron, island, the wall, BobLo. Are the Trenton Fireworks still the big draw? What other spots in the area do you recommend?

Re: My 2018 Season Is Over
Crystal Bay is just north of Bob Lo. Used to be THE place to go but not so much anymore. Back in the 80's there could be 100 or more boats rafted and anchored there. If you ever get a chance to go to the Detroit Windsor Freedom Festival Fireworks you should go. They are on a Monday night about a week and a half prior to the 4th.
Elba Mar Boat Club is located on the east side of Grosse Ile across from Sugar Island. Grosse Ile Yacht Club is south of Elba Mar also across from Sugar Island. You pretty much named all the places to visit in the area. It is a great area to boat in.

I'm surprised. I've been hauled out in snow and sleet and several time in the rain. Pretty scary when the docks and decks are covered with a coat of ice.
It was mildly windy when I pulled out this year, and I was talking to the guy at the hoist and asked him if it was every TOO windy. He said "I don't think so... I've pulled some in about 40 mph winds!!"
