Boating in South Texas
South Texas lakes are big, remote and heavily affected by drought. Falcon and Amistad sit on the Rio Grande and are shared with Mexico, and their levels have dropped sharply during dry stretches — leaving ramps unusable, docks on dry ground and boats with nowhere to go. Choke Canyon and Lake Corpus Christi on the Nueces system see the same swings.
When a lake is low for years, a lot of boats simply stop being used. They end up parked at the lake house or back home in town until someone decides it's time to get rid of them.
Worth Knowing
Local things that affect the job
Travel distance
South Texas jobs can be a long way from major metros, and distance is one of the factors in the price. Give us the exact location so the quote reflects it.
Boats on dry docks
When water levels drop, boats get left on docks or lifts well above the water. Tell us whether the boat is in the water, on a dry dock or on land.
