Register on the TMCA site with complete boat information and note if you plan to come for both nights or just Saturday. Registration will close Thursday, Oct. 31 so that we can provide information to the marina for slip assignments. We will provide your slip assignment by email with a diagram of the marina on Wednesday, Nov. 6. Our discounted rate for the weekend is $1.25 ft.
You will need to check in at the office to pay when you arrive.
Please fly your TMCA burgee and call on channel 68 when approaching the marina. I will also have my phone 713-724-3535. Bring your folding chairs.
It is a short drive over the bridge, so you can come by land yacht, if not by boat. (Please let me know if you plan to come so I can bring enough bowls & utensils, etc.) Call me ahead of time for the gate code.
There is a public boat ramp if anyone wants to bring their trailerable boat to explore the area.
