St. clair to lexington any info?
 

Taking the boat to st. clair and thinking of running to
lexington Sat. and back Sun.
Have been to port huron/ sarnia wonder if theirs docking
with hotel close by in lex. thanks for any help:rolleyes:

My family has had a cottage 6 miles south of the harbor for over 50 years and the trip up is a breeze. There is nothing to hit out in the lake as long as you stay motr than 100' from shore. I make the run as a day trip often. Leave St. Clair in the morning and leave Lex after dinner its about an hour and 30 min depending how fast you cruise. I have made it in 57 min. from deckers. If the wind is out of the Northeast stay home.

Thanks B.R.S., anyone accommodation info?
 

Marina and hotel info? How do you know
your there from the water? Landmark. thanks J.C.

Fountain 27,

I grew up in Lexington and my parents still live there. Unfortunately There arent any hotels in Lex. just a few bed and breakfasts. There is a little motel on the lake just a few blocks south of the harbour but i forget the name. You cant miss the harbour unless you get way offshore. Its made up of big white boulders. I would recomend staying at least 100 yards off shore as ther are some big boulders under the surface as well. The harbour is nice and as b.r.s. mentioned its only a short drive from lake St.clair. If your a golfer bring your sticks because there's a shuttle that runs from the harbour to Lakeview hills golf course (approx. 1 mile ) Actually now that i think of it the golf course built a hotel a few years back, they may even shuttle you back a forth as they do for golfers. If not you could catch a cab. Let me know what weekend your going up, every now and then I get up there to see the parents and if it works out we could hook up for a beer.

thanks for the help guys..
 

I'm going this weekend, I'll drop the boat
around noon at clinton river, do the metro
cruise then probably start heading that
way, my name is john, theres a pic of the
boat on fountain forum, 248-875 3533
cell let me know if your out and what kind
of boat, and thanks for the rock info.

I may actually be up there Sun. The grass needs to be cut. There is also a large water tower near the harbor. You cant miss it. I have gps coordinates if you need them I can post.

Lexington is a state marina. You can make a reservation on the Michigan DNR web site. Other areas to consider - Grand Bend, Canada. About the same distance from Port Huron, and a fun place to party.

Thanks again
 

GPS would be great,still learning how to use it.
Looks like the weather will cooperate. I will check
dnr site. Anyone up there give me a buzz, I owe ya
a cold one. J.C.

J.C. here are the cordinates

N 43*15.976'
W 82*31.308'

These are the mouth of the harbor. You can't miss it you can see the tower for miles and the rock wall sticks out like a sore thumb. I have some work to do as we are finally getting the city water hooked up and I have to take down a 40' antenna tower before I go out. Hope to launch around 2:00 and ram around for a couple hours. Keep an eye out I'm hard to miss.
