so i am new to this forum and new to sailing, as this is also my first post i want to say hello. i have a older 16 and am making a trip to north padre island, here in texas. if you havnt been there it is like 70+ miles of beach. and only 5 miles is for 2 wheel drive, the rest of the 55-60+ miles is 4x4 only. it will be towed through about 30+miles of this....
