Boblo Boats: Abandoned, Restored, Abandoned Again?

I know these are somewhere in Wyandotte, but where? I would like to see them and photograph them. Thanks......

They are in River Rouge. Take Schafer Road until it ends at West Jefferson Avenue. Turn right. Go about a mile until you're approaching Memorial Park on the left. Just before Memorial Park is Great Lakes Avenue. Turn left. Go about 5 blocks. You're now in an industrial area. Cross the tracks until you see a road on your right going to Nicholson Terminal and Dock. Turn right about a block. Be prepared because the Bob Lo Boats sneak up and grab you by the Y/K/W's. It isn't a pretty sight.

I just zoomed in there with GoogleEarth. Looks like only one there when the shot was taken on '07. Doesn't look like a very hospitable place where one should be unless invited.

It isn't a particularly 'hospitable' place unless you were raised there as I was. I played all around that area as a kid. It's no longer very 'hospitable' to me because I've been gone so long. I used to know guards at the National Steel [[GLEW) and Nicholson Terminal gates. No longer. It was a fascinating place to grow up.
