Boat lift on a canal.
Sup fellas... Well Im leaving Walled Lake and coming out to the big water... FINALLY!!! Wife and I found a house and ready to put a bid on it ASAP. But... I am getting no help from Harrison twp or the armycorps on if I can have a lift off the seawall. They both say to put a application in but im sorry... in this market you need to bid on a house quickly. So from anyone experience with this would be great. The house we are bidding on is on 39100 East Archer in Harrison. Do you think this will be a problem... for a formula 242?

I live in Harrison township -- on a canal just south of metro beach . My canal is approximately 60' wide. I have a 20,000 lb side lift hoist. The permitting process takes forever. My old hoist was installed by KB Hoist in New Baltimore. My new hoist installed by Superior Marine on N. River Road in Harrison Township. Both were great to deal with.

Superior marine is my friends company and I also know the excavator operator on his barge very well. He's deff one of the best around. I can have the owner call you if you want to peruse this. Like I said just let me know and I'll help as much as I can. I do know they're installing a dock for another friend of mine and said 3-4 months for permit, it's been 2 so far.

What did you find out about the canal? Bad sea walls, low depth, etc? I'm curious as I search waterfront property's every now and then.
