I actually live up the San Jacinto RIver north of Galveston Bay. I went to google earth and used the path feature to see how many miles going through the ship channels. A round trip from my location to L'auberge Casino was around 328 miles. A round trip from the Beaumont Yacht Club is 134 miles. If I launched in Beaumont, I would not have to worry about filling up and I would save a ton of $$$$$. I have been to the Beaumont Yacht Club before, and the place seems safe to leave your truck and trailer there for a day or so. Nice Boat Launch and plenty of parking.
By the way, I did see slips for parking at L'Auberge on Google Earth. L'Augerge has a awesome buffet with king grab legs and a lazy river. Where is the Golden Nugget that has boat parking? I don't know where the Golden Nugget is located.

Hi. We just moved here from Nova Scotia Canada and keep our boat at Endeavour Marina in Clear Lake. It is a 28 Formula BR with twin 350s. I would really like to do this run. Would my little party barge be able to keep up? I don't have a trailer so I would be leaving from Clear Lake. My boat tops out a little over 60.

I posted on Texas Big Boats on Facebook asking if they plan trips to Lake Charles. Someone responded and said they do it several times a year. They will most likely plan trips when it gets warmer. I am going to keep tabs and watch Texas Big Boats on Facebook. check it out and scroll down till you see all the boats in the water. That was the Neches River Event in Beaumont I went to. It was a lot of fun.

Here you guys go, picked April since it's starting to warm up and if we did it in may we'd be competing with Tickfaw. Then June is Outlaw Challenge.
So far on a quick Facebook poll, there's five boats in.
