The winds must have been kicking up. Andrew was talking about going outside to Mansfield Jetties, but his spot shows inside all the way. Made it by mid day also, so the ooze goose must be performin. From: John Kohnen

The SPOT page gives time in OUR time zone, so he got to Port Mansfield a little before 4:00 Texas time. Started a little before 7:00. 9 hours to go 50 miles +/-. That's flying for a 12' boat! Still no reports on the Texas 200 forum:

I checked the chart, and Andrew's run yesterday was probably 32-35 miles. I don't know why I thought that leg was such a long one... <shrug>
