Professor, I don't think it would ever get too rough to run a water taxi along the lake and river shore from, say, New Baltimore to downtown. Docking facilities, channel dredging, and parking would be the big hurdles. Most of the harbors along the St Clair Shore tend to be shallow and some are not navigable at extreme low water. The winter of course would put a complete stop to the service.
Conceptually, a service New Baltimore, Mt Clemens, St Clair Shores, a couple of Grosse Pointe stops, Belle Isle mainland side, and foot of Woodward would be attractive, but certainly not economic.
