We don't seem to have as many waterfront restaurant options in the Houston area as our friends in Florida, but Jim and I found this muddy shoreline within walking distance of Stingarees restaurant, on the Bolivar peninsula near Galveston, Texas.<br /><br />The tide was dropping when we beached, which meant that when we returned, we were even further up into the mud. This provided a great opportunity to try a technique that Kerry showed us during our demo rides: power up, kick the rudder, pivot on point and then straighten out to scoot across the mud into the open water. What fun!

Rick: We live at Polly Ranch airpark, 7XS0.<br /><br />Frank: I've been combing the Clear Lake area for a waterfront restaurant that is SeaRey-suitable, but they all have docks or breakwaters and I'm too chicken to try parking on either of those! If I missed one, please let me know! <br /><br />

Dave , it's a Long time since I lived there....so I guess they made more marinas than ramps....I will check <br />with a pilot buddy ,lives in the area, and a boater too and see if he has any suggestions.

Hey guys, that's my old hood . Grew up in Beaumont and had a beach house in Crystal Beach....used to <br />fly around there all the time. The mud has a very funky smell and sticks like glue to everything. The <br />Stingaree is one of last resturants open and still packs them in. I would think Clear Lake has some great <br />places to land and good food too. Thanks for posting. Frank
