Default Staying at Hilton in Clear Lake...where to flush engines?

Headed down to Clear Lake to do a cruise to the yacht basin and get some lunch at Floyd's at the Harborwalk. After I'm done I'm going to want to pull out my boat near the Hilton and flush the engines. Where would I be able to hook up a hose and clean up after running? Any suggestions?

Thanks for the help

When we stayed at the Hilton for the TOC, we used the ramp near the hotel. Many other boats used the hotels hose for flushing etc. although I just pulled it home and did my cleanout there. Have fun!

Sweet, as long as they have a water hookup I can use then that's perfect. Appreciate the information.

Thanks, looking forward to it! Figured after having so much fun at Outlaw, needed one last big run before the season started slowing down. Just not the same boating on Travis after TOC.

I would just make sure you bring a hose with you just incase theirs is jacked up. When you coming down? I think I met you at fri at TOC when we were talking to Eric.

Met so many new folks that day I'd have to see your face to make the connection. If you're up for some boating, come out Saturday!
