Homemade houseboat on St. Clair River turns heads

Some online were calling it the Hillbilly Houseboat.

An obviously homemade houseboat turned heads in Port Huron on Sunday, Nov. 23, as it made its way on the St. Clair River near the Blue Water Bridge.

The houseboat consisted of a small, one-story modular building built into a wooden frame, floating on a series of plastic barrels, with engines on one end. The vessel appeared to struggle at times in the river's strong currents, rotating as it navigated the water.
