This was my first roller coaster.
Happy Canada Day and Independence Day!
On this date 110 years ago, the Boblo boat steamer Ste. Claire was launched in Toledo, Ohio. She shuttled generations of Detroiters to the Boblo Island amusemen...t park, until 1991. A number of preservation efforts over the years failed until 2018, when she was destroyed by fire. Her hull still sits near downtown Detroit. Photo from the Detroit Free Press archives
The Britannia (1906-1961) also served as a passenger ferry to and from Boblo Island. https://historicdetroit.org/buildings/britannia
