lake pat cleburne survey

Lake cleburne survey. 
The lake appears full the ramp is a single ramp not a lot of parking but there is a dock right by the so launching would be easier the wind was up when I got there so I didn't even try launching maybe if I get desperate I'll come back up here.

Bagatelle bow eye replacement

Image
I tried to go sailing at Lake Somerville spent most of the morning trying to raise the mast. Once we had the mast up we went to launch the boat and found that the motor wouldn't run so we pulled the boat back out and I noticed in the morning that the bow eye was loose. On the way home there was some traffic on 290 coming in. I had to stop suddenly and since the boat wasn't really connected to the winch it slid forward past the winch and so now I have some gel coat to fix. So I decided to pull out the bow eye that I had bought earlier and put it in the holes that were vacanted by the old bow eye. Looking through the hole I could see that there was no obstructions.The bow eye that I purchased was just a little bit different. The dimension up to down was skinnier than the old bow eye and the holes in the bow post The wood that goes at front of the Bow. So taking a hammer I banged the new Boweye in. It fits snugly but then when I went inside the boat ...

Fort stockton texas I plugged in the car through the door into the room. El Paso, Texas at the Quality Inn. I ran the cable through the window which I could open and plug it in the room. Truth or consequences New Mexico I ran the cables through the window which I could open and plug it in the room. Albuquerque new mexico At the Red Roof Inn.. I parked close to an exterior plug plugged in the hallway, everything was good.  Crestview New Mexico at the super 8 I could open the window and run the cable through the window, plug it in the room. At The Quality Inn in Baton Rouge. I found an exterior plug by the pool charged the car there. In Lafayette Louisiana. I asked permission to run the cable through a door and plug the car in the hallway. In New Orleans, I stayed at a hotel.

I stayed that the Hilton motel (which is not a...

Decker lake near Austin Texas survey July 2025

Image
Central Texas had had a lot of rain over 100 people had died in Kerrville due to flooding. So I thought perhaps Decker lake had been filled by the rain.  My friend Kai had taken his shallow draft trimaran out to the lake for sale. He was able to launch his boat easily but his boat is basically a canoe with amas in a trimaran design. So I drove out there on July 15th 2025. I parked outside the park and I walked down to the lake to do my survey and this is what I found. In this photo you can see that the water is about 4 ft below the dock beside the ramp  on the east side of the ramp there's actually a grass growing in the water of the ramp. The Eastern ramp was even worse as the city has dumped gravel at the base of the ramp to keep motor boaters from launching their boats only a light shallow draft boat can be launched from this ramp such as a kayak or canoe.  so I will not be planning to go sailing on the Decker lake.  The reason that the l...
