Waiting for Weather

Carrabelle is a good place to wait for a weather window to cross to Tarpon Springs. The town is small, friendly, and has a few interesting tourist sites. We liked the town and especially the crowd around the C Quarters marina. C Quarters is not a fancy place, but the people are great. There are a lot of fisherman who keep boats there or just stop by to have a beer on the porch. We found they are quite knowledgeable about the local conditions and advised against departure when the forecast looked ok. The boats that left on the two days we considered going had a lumpy ride. Finally after 9 days we decided to make the jump.
