This railway lift is submerged in the water,you drive in,and it cradles your boat with straps, then it runs on rails comes right out of the water , the straps hold your boat in position and over a big rock incline and over to the next lake approx 60' high, then back in the water on the next lake,the straps go down and you drive away

Lots of people I know go there and they have lots of events going on there during the summer, I believe lake st Clair is joined by Lake Erie and Lake Huron , this place is between Lake Ontario and Georgian bay which goes into Lake Huron
