Notes for upcoming Nats!

Hi guys, just wanted to let you know some of the details for Nats this week.

We will have a course set up Wed for the early arrivals. We may be able to do some weighing on Wed. too but No promises, people do actually have to work ;-)

If you look at the overhead map avail on the Blog website, the weigh in area is a party room just north of the dock entrance inside the Islamagorda Fish Restraunt.

If you need anything contact me at 214-284-7164.

Sailing Instructions will be given at the Skipper's Meeting and Welcome Event at the Flying Saucer on Thursday night @ 7:00 PM. There will be a course board / HMS board near the Start line, and any changes to the SI's will be posted daily. There will be no Skippers meeting other than opening night, so come ready to sail at 10:00 A Friday, 9:00 A Saturday, and 9:00 A Sunday.


This is an open weather venue so prepare accordingly. In severe weather there are many places for us to duck into, but be prepared for any winds, etc. It shouldn't be too cold at all. There is a possibility for scattered storms in the forecast, but the good news is those usually pass through pretty quickly if they happen, and a 7 day forecast in Texas is about as reliable as The stock market the last 2 years.

The conditions on the water at this site are generally choppy, and the wind in Texas can give you all kinds of fun... the skippers who can read the wind and sail the waves will probably come out on top. We should be able to set very long courses, so it should be some great competitive sailing. We hope to give you your money's worth


Bass Pro is a world class outfitter and has gear for all occasions, chairs etc.

We are very excited to host this event and we are looking forward to showing y'all some fun Texas Hospitality.
See you in a few days...

Cheers!
