The organizers of the Great Texas (gt300.com) want to know if you are planning to come to the race this year? Drop us a line at [email protected] if you are thinking about coming.

(NOR will be coming out in February with race registration in March, however, we are interested to know who is thinking about coming now - so let us know and we will let you know with a list on our site - gt300.com - soon.)

We are not only looking for sailors, but also volunteers and people to help out with teams. If you want to attend, we can find a way for you to help out.

We are expecting this to be our biggest year ever as this is the 10th anniversary of the race!

The Great Texas is scheduled for June 13th to 16th. The race starts in South Padre and ends 300 miles later in Galveston. The race is run in four legs.

Winds are always good in June in Texas. Last year's winner averaged 20 mph over the course!

The race is open to anyone with a spin boat 18-22 feet long.

Hope to see you in South Padre in June!
