We were docked at Endevour dock for the weekend but I didn't handle it so don't know how it works. Endevour does have a lot next to the activities where a lot of trailers were and boats on trailers.

Yeah, about not having anymore issues.
Lets just say I am still paying for dry rack storage in STL, paying for a storage unit in HOU, my truck is still in STL waiting to pull the boat down south, had to buy my wife a last minute airline ticket to fly home last weekend all because "something" was only going to take 3-3.5 weeks to build starting the 2nd of October. 7.5 weeks later the boat did not sit on the trailer correctly, the wheels were yellow, paint was chipping after just the delivery, bow stop didn't fit the boat, the steps were in the radius of the bumper and now we are going 9 weeks later with our closing happening the week of the 10th and the truck/boat are still not in Texas. But I digress.
Then, when I put the key into the door at our corporate housing place it just opened... only to find that it had been kicked in. Nothing like having the Houston PD in your place within the first hour of our arrival.
But other than all this no other issues and things can only get better! Right?
I don't think we will have any problems becoming Texans, spent the day in Galveston this weekend and drove around Clear Lake. I told my wife if we are not going to have snow anymore then Palm Trees will work for me.

Welcome!! I hope to meet you. Please look into our several fine boating clubs in Houston area starting with TOPPS Clear Lake. If you see this in time we are meeting tonight at 7PM at the Turtle Club in Clear Lake. The website is under construction. There is also "The Boat Club" of Clear Lake, www.boatersclub.org. And in Conroe we also have TOPPS, www.topps-lakeconroe.com. Again, welcome and don't get too anxious the high humidity we have causes a penetrating wet cold that makes it hard for me to do much boating before late March or April. Again, Welcome!!

I have been interested in this too. Could you send me the upcoming schedule also? I have been into outboard drag boat racing for years and now want to try something a little different since I bought my 30 Spectre
