Saturday – June 20th – Surfside to Galveston

 

The morning was kicked off with an 8 AM Skippers Meeting and a 9 AM start to the second annual Surfside to Galveston Dash.  This year there were 13 Dash Boats and 12 of the 13 left the beach first, most with help from a GT300 sailor.  The last boat to leave the beach, Team Brian, returned briefly to the beach due to some boat issues.  After readjustments were made, they quickly headed out through the surf.
