Can anyone suggest a sailing club in the Southwestern USA where my Mac 26s would be "size appropriate" ?
I am a member of a very active club in Houston that has lots of events but each time i decide to drive 500 mile to attend it is strongly suggested I have too small a boat for that event. They are always nice, polite and even offer to let me ride with them. But I really wanted the experience with my boat not as a passenger. I have no problems with the members I just don't have enough boat to run with in those circles.
So can anyone suggest a club where I would have the right size boat for the trips they make ?

We have had quite a few members in Baytown area, which, IIRC, is Houston area, if that drive isnt an issue.
