St. Clair River Classic Boat Guide is an independent information site for owners and admirers of classic boats on the St. Clair River.
What the guide covers
The site explains how vintage engines, wooden and early fiberglass hulls and their systems are maintained, how to prepare a boat for winter and for spring, how to inspect an older boat before buying it, and where to look for parts. It is written for owners who do some of the work themselves and for those who want to know what to ask a technician.
How the content is prepared
The articles are general information, not professional advice. They draw on manufacturer and industry guidance and on common practice among classic boat owners. Engines and boats differ, and fuel, electrical and steering systems affect safety, so have a qualified marine technician inspect or carry out that work, and check details against the manual for your engine.
Not a boatyard
This site does not repair boats, rent wells, store boats, sell parts or give quotes, and it does not take bookings. The pages on boat wells and storage describe the options in general terms and do not offer any space.
