Thanks PGITUG. Appreciate the post. Always like to hear about good food close to docks. Will have to try it out when we make it down because we love Mexican food :)

Good idea ff. good excuse to head down that way for a few days

Thanks Tim!

Thanks David. I gave Tarpon Point a call today after checking out their site and doing some google earth. Surprisingly reasonable rates for an annual lease. We have a little while longer before we move the boat down...but Tarpon Point is definitely a top contender. As we get closer I will...

Great thread. Waterfront restaurant. St James city, Fl. Anything over 20ft, dinghy in probably best. Dive restaurant that fills up with locals at lunch. Nothing super special, just a fun place to eat. Deep fried cheesecake is awesome.

Beautiful!!
