FYI, per Matt Schiemer, current TX200 Sailing Club President, “Well folks, the 11th Texas 200 is now behind us. Another great year, with some challenging wind speeds the first few days, and some pesky East in the wind on Days 4 and 5. Overall though, an awesome year in my opinion.
“I truly enjoyed this year’s event, particularly being able to sail and hang out with so many of the great people who participate. Anyone can sail any part of the Texas Gulf Coast any day of the year, and it will be good. But to make it truly great you need to do the Texas 200 and interact with the fantastic people who do this event.
“With the high winds on Days 1 and 2, we had a pretty high drop-out rate, possibly the 2nd highest ever. Only 25 of the 45 boats who started wound up finishing at Magnolia Beach on either Friday or Saturday.”

Love your boat Eric, versatile, functional and fast.
Glad you didn’t sell it, you would be kicking yourself for years to come.
