Bob-Lo
Boats – A Tribute
We all remember the old Bob-Lo Boats
cruising up and down the Detroit River coming and going from the
Bob-Lo Island Amusement Park or heading for the moonlight cruise
on Lake St. Clair. Many wonder what has happened to these century-old
steamers, The Columbia and The Ste. Clair. They are the last of
their kind. This web site is a tribute to these grand old ladies
of the river.
