Going over Big Chute on the Trent-Severn Waterway

hey nothing special really just just taken on a boat trip through the waterways

[@thenewbassraider]

for those of us that have never seem something like this before it's very cool. thanks for posting

Memories!!! I remember doing that over 30 years ago and the lift locks in Peterbourgh. It was a Great Trip!!

[@jesperpfeil]

As we say in the Merchant Marine, "Boring is good".

[@teaeff8898]

Brings back so many memories... did that numerous times in my fishing boat, and before with my parents... I’ve been over on the old car, too, the one that’s now retired, but never been removed. I think it’s still operational. My parents had a cottage on T-Lake just up the river from Big Chute, before it narrows at the island. Look up James Angus’s books about the Trent-Severn, they’re great. He grew up in Big Chute. Also has one on the Georgian Bay Lumber company.

[@bigearedmouse17]

Anyone else expecting it to rush down the other side really fast ?

[@oldman4803]

Watched this with my grandson and he was disappointed when it didn't speed up on the slope into the water LOL

[@bigbob16]

I was hoping it would shoot down the ramp like a Disneyland ride😃

[@garyreilly9605]

It has in the past and you end up with boats in a tangled mess with hurt people in the mess of boats and in the water, not a nice picture....

[@nuthineatholl6434]

I'm building a smaller version of this thing to get my lazy ass out of bed and into a nice hot morning bath.

[@Niftynorm1]

I remember doing that with our family back in the 1970's. The Trent Severn waterway is really a fun and scenic run. Definitely not a weekend trip. Start in Lake Ontario and end up in Georgian Bay.

[@Wardell43]

Awesome! Thanks for posting. And thanks to all of those that make this happen everyday!!

If I ever took a ride on that, I would blow the boat horn in standard crossing style ,two longs a short and a long held through the crossing....just for fun

[@ohbobpleez]

There is a River Trent and a River Severn in the UK, I was confused until I saw it was in North America. Didn't even notice the Canadian flag. :)

[@teaeff8898]

ohbobpleez yep there’s a Trent in the UK, but this is on the Severn end of the Trent-Severn. And there a Severn in the UK as well, lol. Where we got the names from here in the Canadian colonies. 😉

[@10yearsag0]

i just want comment like this before i see u comment .

[@Ruf-Art-by-Tim]

So rather than blowing up the land and digging out a canal and putting in massive doors to hold back water, some " Canadian " figured that this is a better way to move boats ........NICE MOVE CANADA..... Make everyone else look stupid !

[@sessionfiddler]

I think it also keeps a lamprey eel problem from spreading since eels that latch onto the hulls just fall off onto the ground shortly after the boat being hauled out of the water.

[@cogitoergoludo]

I feel like either Tim the Traveller or Tom Scott should make a video about this thing…

Took a trip u the Trent Severn Waterway several years ago from Cambellford to Georgian Bay. Amazing trip.

[@adamclark9253]

Thank you for the vid, was cool, not boaring

[@toyman9642]

A boat trip through the Trent Severn Waterway from lake Ontario is amazing. You can go through a series of rivers, lakes, canals and locks all the way to Georgian Bay, if you so choose. I've been through the Peterborough Lift Locks (check them out...awesome) and Big Chute. We took three weeks and loved it.

[@rickkentner1713]

I've been through there before. We were all told to get off and walk. Only the captain is allowed on the boat. Also, down on the left side is Rapids. A great swimming spot and natural water hole for a great massage. Not boring at all!!

[@johnalton8726]

Actually, since the boats drive off the carrier and continue directly down or up the canal system, the passengers generally stay on the craft. Been there, done that, just last year.

[@1951RKP]

I like this boring or not. I find it interesting.

[@Brian3989]

Over in Scotland they have a lift between two canals. Check out the Falkirk Wheel. Lovely engineering.

I kept trying to place it around, you know, the actual Severn and Trent. But it turns out that it’s the New Severn and New Trent in Canada.

[@toyman9642]

Just curious. What's the longest length of boat that the locks system can accommodate?

[@Ahzlon]

This is kinda cool. Never seen one of these before. Been through a couple of locks. But nothing like this. Hearing that thing shudder and shake must create a lil pucker power though :). Cool vid and thanks for sharing. :)

[@electricsparks4251]

Lot cheaper than cutting out a canal from one water way to another. But on the other hand, a bridge would have to be built for the roadway if a canal were built. Here in New York State canal system, a series of locks are used to go from higher to lower, (or vice versa), levels of land that the canal traverses from one end of the state to the other end. It's free. How much did you have to pay to "ship" your boat over the land?

Is there a toll or fee involved?

[@Jag-Soft]

this is kinda amazing would be so fun to go across. do you know id canal boats are allowed across or is it just cruisers?

[@Sheba936]

+jagsoftStudios Not sure what a Canal Boat looks like but I don't see why not. All kinds of watercraft use it. It will handle Boats up to 100 Feet Long and a 24 Foot Beam. The vertical Lift is 58' and the Horizontal Travel is 100;.

[@bababooey7576]

We took our 17.5 foot boot over it. almost any size that would fit i think!?

[@MikeBaxterABC]

Canna boats would be welcome (anything that can fit in is welcome) but you just do NOT see traditional UK Style Canal Boats in Canada, the locks here are HUGE in comparison ... the smallest Lift lock in this particular system is 84' long and 23' wide (25.4m X 7.0m) ... Even the Marine Railway in this video lift can take ships up to 100 tons in weight.

[@qtheplatypus]

This seems so much more complex then a lock. Did they have to do it this way because it was too tall for standard lock designs?

[@coni1964]

What is the water level difference between the 2 bodies of water?

[@Sheba936]

+n. woody EDIT: The Vertical Lift Height is 58 Feet. So I guess that's the difference in Water Level. The Horizontal Travel is 100 Feet. It will handle boats up to 100 Feet Long and a 24 Foot Beam.

[@douglasmccarty1196]

Thanks, my boat is 99'long with a beam ok 22'-6"

[@MikeBaxterABC]

Depending on seasonal water levels it's about a 60 foot (18 m) lift ... The Big Chute Marine Railway is the only marine railway (or canal inclined plane) of its kind in North America still in use, there's actually second antique manual operated one right beside it That is was used on occasion until 2003 (when the big one was out of service for emergency repairs or breakdown) ...it's was also a sight to see.

[@ericlakota4400]

I'll bet that is expensive lock lift

[@Stormcastle]

Wow.... if there's a line-up, this must take forever! Why wouldn't they just build a lock... or canal?

[@MikeBaxterABC]

Two other marine railway lifts were replaced by tradition Locks on this system in the past ... but this site is considered a national historic site and will never be changed .. the other thing is there was plan in 1964 to dig it out and put a regular lock ... but Sea lamprey live in the bottom side of the waterway and making a lock there would allow them ito the whole lake system (devastating sport fishery stocks) Occasionally to this day Sea Lamprey will attach themselves to the boats .. but they fall off a few seconds after going up the ramp in the dry air, eliminating any risk.. So finally in 1976 they built the new railway lift you see in this video, at the cost of only 3 million dollars ... the old manual operated railway still stayed in occasional use until 2003 but is decommissioned now (it's right beside the big one)

[@kingtob5061]

[@dale3858]

Do they charge a fee for this?

[@MikeBaxterABC]

When you typed this it was about $5 per foot of boat lengths, lifts for a 20 footer would be $30 ... but that's for 6 days of unlimited lockages (there's a total of 44 locks and it's almost 400 KM long) .. there's a flat rate unlimited full season pass that's only $8 per boat length foot ... BUT in the 2017 season ALL lockages are 100% free to celebrate Canada's 150 year Anniversary ...

If you thought it was boring, why would you post the video to youtube? My guess is that was a poor choice of a wording. Maybe saying "Progress is incredibly slow" or ""This is much cooler than watching the grass grow" or something like that would be more appropriate if you ask me. But I'm thinking the guy was trying to distract us from what he was really doing. At about 01:05 I hear a zipper. Perhaps he was getting ready to expose himself? Just kidding of course :-) It actually sounds like the zipper to a camera case or something like that. I'm sorry if anybody thought that was in bad taste. Shame on me!
