Just out of curiosity, has anyone checked with Surfside marina to see if they would lift the big boats into the water?

I talked to the folks at Surfside marine (right across from Bridge bait) and they would use a forklift to put the boats in and pull them out for $75.00. They usually charge the 75 to put in and then another to pull out for a total of 150 but She would cut us a deal and do both for 75. She said it is
a rather lengthy and complicated process doing it on the trailer. I have watched it before and it makes me slightly nervous. Probably not an option I will pursue.

I have a big correction to make. I had my rivers confused. The ramp is actually on the Brazos River and it's the Freeport House Municipal Boat Ramp. Jim provided me the GPS coordinates where you can paste them in to google maps to see just where the ramp is: 28.956004,-95.361917

Who are you? I think I vaguely remember you. Isn't your wife's name Janet or Joy or something like that?

Long time, no see stranger! We'll see you and Joyce soon!

You know where to find me if its a liquid kind of day/night. Papa's Beach by day, Big Berthas by night. Still trying to make the run work as the job on that Saturday is a big roadblock. If all works out, won't have to worry about weekend work after June!

That seems like it would be a little easier commute than going to the San b! I saw on 2cool where they are doing construction on the locks at the brazos, might be something to check to make sure y'all will be able to get through. I will be at bridge bait about 830-9. Can't wait!
