You took that _tiny_ boat down to the ocean??!!
(just kidding). We keep our Catalina 27 in Yacht
Harbor--its five minutes from our house.

I'm jealous.

Remember that Lake Travis is 62 miles long from
dam to dam and more than 100 feet deep in the main
channel. That is a pretty long daysail ;-)
We've lived on Lake Travis since 1991, so we know
pretty well what we're in for.

Beautiful lake. I sailed it in two smaller boats
for years.
We've moved it to Port Aransas, Palacios, and it's
been in Kehma for 2 1/2 years. Having said that,
the drive to the coast is getting old.

Our new boat is currently in Palacios, and we can
keep it there as long as we want. I've done the
roundtrip twice in the last three days, and it is
a solid four hours from our house (ugh!) At least
when you get there you have a place to stay

Palacios is only three hours from my house. Closest
gulf access to Austin. We were at Serendipity
Marina and RV resort. Not much in Palacios
except for the Outrigger cafe. Friendly people
though. Docking in Portofino just across from
the Kemah boardwalk is like the anti-Palacios.
