We're excited for the 2nd cruise of our 2024 Cruising Season!

Important Note: Due to lower participation than expected, dinner reservations have been reduced to 20 people to prevent a financial loss to the club. It will be the 1st weekend of Spring Break and the restaurant was kind enough to host us if we agreed to give a final headcount and payment no later than Tuesday (March 6th). Land Cruisers are encouraged to network and meet members that have boats so that more people can transit via boat. 

Departing on March 9th to the Corpus Christi Marina (each person must reserve a slip, see below) dinner at The Executive Surf Club Board Room (max of 40 people), night cap hosted by Mary and Bill Downey, and brunch for those that spend the night at Water Street Oyster Bar.

Note: The cost of the ticket is just for dinner (cash bar for anything other than water) and brunch will be individual checks.

For the folks that want to spend the night and won't sleep on their boats, there are a variety of hotels in walking distance.
