Tuesday, November 9, 2010 Location: Steinhatchee, FL

After the weather forecast improved,  Tadpole and Blue Max left Carrabelle Monday afternoon  and motored for three hours,  anchoring at Alligator Harbor in preparation for our trip across the Gulf of Mexico. We left  left early this morning and crossed over to Steinhatchee were we are staying at the Sea Hag Marina. (Tiki’s flirting on the dock resulted in a fisherman sharing some of his catch and giving her a filet of fresh grouper for our dinner..”Delicious”.)

During our crossing today, we were escorted several times by schools of Dolphin..They were so beautiful


Sea Hag Marina
 swimming along side of us up close and jumping up out of the water as they played. We tried to catch it all on camera, but they jump so fast.

Tomorrow, we will travel down to the Florida Barge Canal were we will anchor prior to advancing to the Clearwater-Dunedin-Tampa area.

  5. Interesting what Tony said, I crashed during final docking, perfect conditions after 4000 mile voyage! The dolphins understand exactly what is going on, how do you explain this feeling to people who have not experienced it or so many of the unique experiences none of us will ever encounter! Congrats guys!!!!!!!!!!!!1
