Huh? The DNR-Department of Natural Resources. At the time the moorings
disappeared, from what my sorces tell me(60's) there were Republican
governors. Really doesn't have anything to do with it, however. Our local
sail club didn't appear on the scene until 1969, IIRC. You should look up

I don't think any of the few individuals in these parts that had their boats
on moorings had the resources to take on neighborhood associations on this
side of the river, and the good people of Grosse Ile on the other.

On
Lake Michigan, sailors successfully fought off the DNR, you can still find
moorings. End of story.

MichiganRepublican side of state....also the Romney family owns a ton of
land up on Portage Laake and the dunes of Lake MI, the VanAnde;'s and DeVos'
