Welcome to the site, there are a lot of members in your area, hopefully they will chime in.
Have you been sailing beachcats already or is the Supercat your first?

Welcome! Did you buy the Supercat that was for sale in the Houston area a couple months ago? As Damon said, there are a bunch of guys in your area on here. Also check out the Texas City Dike Yacht Club site. You'll find area-specific info there. Hope to see ya down at the Dike soon!

Hey super17redline, thanks for sharing the pics. I noticed that you had used the url of the thumbnail size pics in the photo album so there were very small "full size" pics here in the forum.
Hope you don't mind, I've edited your picture post so that the big version of the pics appears. Might have to refresh your browser to see the change.
By the way, is there a name we can call you besides super17redline?

Hello Chris, I live in Seabrook and you can usually find me at the Texas City Dike most Saturdays during sailing season. I will send you a PM with my email.
