At the dock





So, last Friday, we went with the familly for a little tour. Passing by the race boat slips, someone asks me if I am the one who requested a PHRFGB rating for LadyC. Yes, I am the proud owner. OK, the rating offered is 150... far from the 245 that was originally given to me... It will be much more challenging now and we will have to play with the big boys, instead of being the one driving the show! To bad, next weekend is the duo mixt race, the advertising also call that race the divorce race, I won't be able to participate, since we are going diving to Flower Garden in the middle of the Gulf.


Outriggers



Near the Seabrook Marina, almost under Seabrook-Kemah bridge, there is a place that I need to check out one day. It is right on the water, on the pass from Clearlake to the bay. There is a boardwalk around and customers either comes from the shore, usually with large pick-up trucks or gorgeous Harleys, or from the water side. There is noise from the above bridge, good music and probably great cold beers for afternoon after sail. Usually, there are several huge offshore motor boat moored in front, the one that flourish around here with super loud twin V8 or so. When these guys maneuver in front of the bar to dock, you probably have to plug your ears. All in all, I like that place, looks like plenty of fun! With LadyC we do not play in the same backyard, but I am sure we could have a god time there one of these days...
