Muskoka Steamships Frozen in Time
Most of us that spend time in Muskoka have been out for a tour on these steamships or have at least seen these babies around the lakes. The Gravenhurst wharf is their full time home. I was surprised to see that they were frozen right into the ice. I would have thought they would be protected with ice-out bubblers around them.
For a good laugh check out The Rick Mercer Report where he visits the Muskoka Steamships

Stately looking steamships…I’m also very surprised to see them frozen in the ice. We have a cruise ship on Lake Nippissing which for years was always taken out of the water…I’m not sure if it still is as I haven’t been down to Callander in the winter to check for a number of years. Seems to me the ice could do damage to the hull of the ships???
Great video!
Cheers
