CHW,
I did extensive research on South Texas ASA schools for my 104 and 118 (docking endorsement). Two schools stood out - Windward SeaVenture and Southcoast. I did my 104 at Windward and my 118 at Southcoast. I would recommend, and will go back, to both. Many places in South Texas have small boats and are more of a "gimmick" location to run a lot of people through initial classes. Both of these have good boats, and quality instructors. My 104 was on a Hunter 41, and the 118 on a Hunter 36 and Hunter 43.
Galveston Bay was an interesting place to sail...you can hold a course for hours with depths consistently at 9 feet throughout the bay! For your 103/104 they will take you down the ship channel and into the Gulf. Enjoy!
