Four 1st's and a 2nd is only a "good" day? Seems a bit more than that to me.

Not online today. Only on NBC.

Blake at Clear Lake Diving Services in another good one. blake@clearlakediving.com.

So the massages are on Be Easy?

Whoever is praying for breeze, stop praying so hard!

PHRF-Galveston Bay has published the details of this coming year's challenge for PHRF Boat of the Year. Please see the attached.

If you are registering for you and a guest, you must do more than just enter the guest's name on the initial registration page. You must click on "Add Guest" toward the bottom of the page and then enter the guest's name again. This will properly register the guest and charge you the correct amount.

If you have already registered and thought you were also signing up your guest, but were only charged $50 instead of $100, Go back into registration. It will tell you that you are already registered, but will allow you to add your guest.

Sorry, we don't write the programs.

Getting a little cabin fever, Ed?

Our Clubhouse is a part of it. It used to be one large open building before it was subdivided into offices sometime in the 90's.

20+ knots of wind, flat water for the in-port buoy race part of the start and the water just pouring over the bows. Those boats are designed for maximum agony. I'm really glad I turned Kenny Read down when he asked me to sail with them.

The following sent to us by Trish and Roy Weeks concerning the recent passing of old friend Mike Seich. I remember some fabulous barbecue "back in the day."

Please pass this on, Mike Seich was a GBCA member who cooked for many GBCA events like Veracruz. For many years he was a huge asset to GBCA .

If whomever gets this did not know him please feel free to contact me Trish Weeks 281 787-2774 . I told Kevin Hayes just today and he too can help with details if needed. The November issue of Telltails magazine should have additional information.

Thank you,
Trish & Roy Weeks  former GBCA members

Obituary for Mike Seich, known with affection around Clear Lake as Capt. Poop for his tireless work with Maritime Sanitation. He was also a great BBQ cook. So long old friend? SB
