Ingredients 2 dozen fresh Florida oysters, shucked and on the half shell 1 stick unsalted butter Hot sauce (your favorite), to taste 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped fine 3 lemons (1 for juice, 2 cut for garnish) 1 tablespoon fresh garlic, chopped fine 1 teaspoon seafood seasoning ¼ cup Parmesan cheese, grated ¼ cup panko or regular unseasoned breadcrumbs 1 teaspoon olive oil Sea salt and fresh ground pepper, to taste

Preparation: Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees. In a small sauce pot combine butter, hot sauce, garlic, seafood seasoning and lemon juice, season with salt and fresh ground pepper.

Melt the butter mixture over medium-low heat, stir to combine.

Taste and adjust with more lemon or hot sauce if needed. Remove from heat and set aside.

In a small mixing bowl, combine breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, olive oil and parsley. Use a fork to mix breadcrumb mixture and set aside.

Place oysters on the half shell on a cookie sheet. Spoon an even amount of melted butter over each oyster. Next, evenly sprinkle breadcrumb mixture over the top of each buttered oyster. Carefully place oysters in preheated oven and switch to broil. During this stage of the cooking it is important to keep a close eye on the oysters under the broiler. The oysters should only take 2 to 3 minutes to cook.

Carefully remove oysters from the broiler and let cool slightly. Serve broiled oysters with any leftover butter mixture and lemon wedges.

Cobalt Introduces its New-Generation R33 Sterndrive Luxury Runabout

N

EODESHA, Kan., April 13, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- To provide day boaters with even more comfort and room, premium luxury manufacturer Cobalt Boats has announced the introduction of the all-new R33 Sterndrive luxury runabout. Addressing strong demand for a larger runabout, the yacht-certified R33 Sterndrive checks in at an impressive 33’ 4” LOA and 10’ 6” beam. Offering sleek lines, agile handling, superb performance and advanced appointments, the R33 Sterndrive is an example of bigger being better – and faster: Driven by Volvo or Mercruiser twin engines generating up to 860 horsepower, the R33 can reach speeds in excess of 60 mph.

The R33 continues Cobalt’s trend toward contemporary design, with its deeper cockpit and greater freeboard, which in turn enable a more spacious interior and larger bow and cockpit areas. Along with such standard amenities as a Garmin glass cockpit with multiple

touchscreen displays, ultra-fast USB-C charging stations, 42 (!) cupholders, a wealth of storage space, an integral swim step and a cabin that accommodates sleeping as well as seating. The R33’s unique offerings include the industry’s first Harman Kardon premier marine audio system – a Cobalt exclusive – along with a Seakeeper gyroscopic stabilization system.

In addition to an array of color and audio system configurations, functional options include a choice of L-seating or a galley, a removable Ice Mule soft-sided portable cooler, a solid teak dinette table, even larger 12” Garmin display panels, stainless steel LED docking lights, a sideentry door and RGB accent lights. Also available are a smart TV for broadband streaming; a hydraulically actuated swim platform; ‘Fresco Chil’ upholstery that reduces temperatures by up to 20° F. on dark surfaces; a dash-mounted mobile phone cradle with wireless charging; an intuitive joystick docking controller; teak flooring for the

cockpit, cabin, head and swim platform; and the first one-touch, all-electric planar folding tower and sunshade.

“Incorporating a wealth of innovative technology to enhance the day boating experience, the new R33 Sterndrive features advancements in design, luxury, convenience and overall performance,” said Jason Turner, Cobalt’s president.

“We’re looking forward to sharing this

exciting boating statement with our dealers and the boating public,” he added.

Currently entering production, the Cobalt R33 Sterndrive is available for order through Cobalt’s World Class Dealer Network.

About Cobalt: Headquartered in Neodesha, KS, Cobalt Boats LLC, is a publicly owned, industry-

leading manufacturer of luxury family day boats. Combining uncompromising product quality with customer-inspired innovation and value, Cobalt, a division of Malibu Boats, has earned an international reputation for unmatched customer satisfaction through its World Class Dealer Network.

Fourth Annual “Best Harbor in The U.S.” Contest US Harbors Uses Crowdsourcing and Passionate Coastal Communities to Find Winners

R

ockland, Maine – US Harbors, a free online resource for boaters and coastal communities, announced today voting begins on Monday, April 18, 2022 for the fourth annual “Best Harbor in the U.S.” contest at www.usharbors.com/bestharbor-2022.

Participation is open to everyone, including the 10+ million people who use US Harbors for their coastal and marine weather, tides charts, and harbor-local boating and fishing information. The contest has seen tremendous growth over the years, with considerable competition as coastal communities around the country vie for the title of “Best Harbor in the U.S.”.

www.abelsmarine.com

The purpose of the contest is to promote the strength and vitality of coastal communities: past winners have been harbors whose residents are passionate about where they live and work and have strong communication networks.

These kinds of networks are vital in supporting the resilience – and sustainability – of coastal communities as they face the impacts of climate change and other events.

Voting for this year’s Best Harbor contest is open from April 18 through May 31, 2022. Participation is limited to one vote per user. People can vote on any of the 1,400+ harbors US Harbors provides coastal weather and tides for, from Maine to Hawaii, Florida to Alaska, and the Great Lakes. The winning harbors will be announced on Tuesday, June 7, 2022. Special commemorative plaques recognizing their win will be given to the Overall Winner, and each of the six regional winners (e.g., Northeast, Mid-Atlantic, Southeast, Gulf Coast, Pacific, and Great Lakes).

Additionally, US Harbors will throw a special live Awards Event with harbormasters and residents of the winning harbors on Tuesday, June 14, 2022, at 3 p.m. EST. In 2021 over 200,000 people from around the country participated in the annual contest: they voted online, shared photos and stories of their harbors, and most importantly they spread the word in their local communities to get others to join them. Previous “Best Harbor” winners have included Charlevoix, Michigan (2021); Depoe Bay, Oregon (2020); and Padanaram, Massachusetts (2019).

For more information on US Harbors, please visit www.usharbors.com.

Elcome Showcased Hybrid Diesel-Electric Propulsion Systems and Marine Electronics at 2022 India Boat & Marine Show

D

UBAI, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES – (Marine NewsWire) Elcome International introduced a revolutionary new hybrid diesel-electric boat propulsion system, as well as a full suite of marine electronic products at the India Boat & Marine Show this year.

The system architecture, developed by Transfluid, incorporates a clutch and transmission that enables fast and seamless switching between electric-only, diesel-only or combination modes.

When the clutch is disengaged, the vessel runs solely on battery power, providing silent emission-free running. When in “engine” mode, the clutch is engaged, and the diesels propel the boat while also simultaneously recharging the batteries. In the “booster” mode, the batterydriven electric motor and diesel engines combine to deliver maximum thrust for the powertrain.

The lithium batteries can also be charged from a shore power connection when at the pier, and from on-board solar panels when underway.

The three operational modes enable the boat operator to use smaller, less expensive and more efficient diesel engines, yielding substantial savings in fuel consumption and longer maintenance intervals without sacrificing performance. The system also provides more flexibility for boats operating in and out of environmentally protected areas, while delivering improved working conditions for the crew, with no diesel fumes or noise when running in the electric mode.

The completely integrated turnkey solution utilizes a proprietary electronic controller that communicates with all components through a CAN Bus protocol. The hybrid modules, batteries and electric motors are approved by DNV.

International. “Potential markets include private yachts, commercial crafts, passenger boats and government patrol vessels in offshore and inshore applications, including newbuilds and retrofits.”

Suntex Marinas – Making Waves in Florida

A

n advocate of introducing as many people as possible to the boating lifestyle, Suntex Marina Investors, LLC (Suntex) has been rapidly expanding throughout Florida, and beyond. Considered the premier owner and operator of bestin-class marina properties, Suntex reached a milestone and recently joined forces with the established marina management company, Westrec Marinas.

“Years ago we realized the many synergies between Westrec Marinas and Suntex,” said Bryan Redmond, CEO, Suntex Marinas. “Westrec Marinas’ vision of offering the best in customer service and amenities, along with a memorable experience out on the water, align perfectly with our vision. The most rewarding part of this merger is knowing we now have added another whole

network of marinas who share our core values and together we are poised for a fantastic future.”

The merger is only part of the story of Suntex’ expansion in Florida over the past months. In February, Suntex announced its acquisition of Prime Marina Miami in Coconut Grove, now restored to its previous name Bayshore Landing. “Our team is well-known for our quick and first-class customer service. Our marina is known for treating all of our members like family,” says Sam Chavers, Senior Vice President, Operations, Suntex Marinas.

In August 2021, Suntex closed on Faro Blanco, in Marathon in the Florida Keys. The first-class marina, home of the iconic lighthouse, has 74 slips that accommodate vessels up to 140 feet, and offers

entertainment, activities, privacy, safety, convenient fuel and pump out services, and dockside hookups.

Crew can enjoy themselves at the resort-owned restaurant facing the marina, as well as an expanded pool area and gym.

Suntex recently added two more marinas to create a stronger presence in the Florida Keys.

While Garrison Bight is the only dry storage facility on Key West, Caloosa Cove Marina & Resort in Islamorada offers similar amenities to Faro Blanco, and will see a grand opening of the Oceanside Safari Restaurant and Lounge this summer.

Heading over to the West coast of Florida, Little Harbor Marinas became a Suntex property in October. Located in Ruskin and

formerly known as Antigua Cove and Village Marina, the Marinas at Little Harbor offer exceptional amenities to boaters in the Tampa Bay area, including state-of-theart slips, a dry stack building, and outdoor racks are also available.

The West Marina includes Sunset Grill Restaurant, which is fully equipped with Tiki Bar, outdoor patio and deck. It has great views and access to a private beach.

Situated along downtown Sarasota’s Bayfront, Marina Jack is Southwest Florida’s premier destination and has been a Suntex marina for over a decade. As the gateway to the Gulf Coast, Marina Jack offers fixed and floating docks with power, fresh water, free WiFi, cable and in-slip pump out.

On-site amenities include ships store, climate-controlled showers

and restrooms, launderette and a service department.

A little further south you will find Bayfront Yacht Works & Marina in Siesta Key which specializes in marine service, and Snook Bight in Ft. Myers that offers wet slips and indoor dry storage, a pool, restaurant, and ship store on site.

These are not newly acquired but are also shining examples of Suntex core values, that allow us to offer our visitors the best possible experience at world-class destinations.

Storing Your Boat

A

key component of boat ownership is the question of where to keep your boat when you’re not using it. Budget, convenience and availability play into the equation and should be part of any pre-purchase discussion.

Trailering You won’t find a less-expensive way to keep a boat than storing it on a trailer in your driveway or backyard. A boat trailer has the added advantages of allowing you to boat on different bodies of water and to seize random nice

days. Be sure to check your vehicle owner’s manual for safety rules, tips and complete instructions on boat towing capacity. This will help make sure you’re selecting the appropriate boating equipment for the model you’re buying.

Rack Storage Another alternative for smaller boats is rack storage or dry stacks. A typical

rack storage facility keeps your boat in a covered shed filled with trailer-like cradles. You call the facility before you want to go boating and they use a forklift or other lifting machine to retrieve and launch your boat at a designated time.

When you come back, you tie it up, walk away and they return it to the shed.

The Boat Marina Advantage For owners of larger boats, and owners of small boats who crave convenience, buying or renting a boat marina slip is the best way to go. You drive your family and gear to the marina, load the boat, cast off the lines and go. Rates vary from state to state and marina to marina,

but typically you’ll be charged according to the length of your boat or the length of the slip. Boat marinas sometimes offer winter storage, service options and amenities. The best marinas offer connections for electricity, wash down water, telephone, Internet and TV at the dock. Boat marinas can be great fun as well, with slip-holders often getting together for parties, cookouts or just friendly socializing.

It pays to do some research before you buy your boat. Consult your local yellow pages, go on-line and search for marinas on the body of water you plan to use and discuss the issue with the dealer who’s selling you your boat.

Discover Boating is a public awareness effort managed by the National Marine Manufacturers Association (NMMA) on behalf of the North American recreational boating industry. Discover Boating programs focus on increasing participation and creating interest in recreational boating by demonstrating the benefits, affordability and accessibility of the boating lifestyle while helping to educate potential boaters and offering opportunities to experience the fun and togetherness of being on the water on a boat. Each year nearly 70 million people in the U.S. enjoy boating, the recreational activity that “connects like no other.”

Captain’sCorner with Captain Sergio Atanes A Summer Night Adventure Summer storms are upon us, temperatures are rising, and nighttime fishing is hot. Tampa residents are in for a treat. Night fishing has its rewards with cool breezes clear nights and tight lines.

Summer brings an influx of game fish into upper Tampa Bay a short drive for Tampa residents. Tarpon, Snook, Trout, Red Drum “Redfish” and Black Drum just to name a few; Shore anglers can fish from St. Pete side of Gandy bridge north shoreline, Ballast Point Pier, and Picnic Island Pier. Boat anglers can target Howard Franklin and Gandy Bridge.

May, June, and July are prime months for catching large Black Drum. A close relative of Red Drum “Redfish”, this hard fighting gamester has the pulling power of a small freight train on the loose.

Black Drum can range from 5-pound to 40-pounds. This time of year, they can be caught using their favorite meal blue crabs.

Medium tackle is recommended, I use my standard grouper rig of a 7-foot medium action Cedros CJ-S 701Ma rod and Azores 6000H reel with 50-pound FINS Windtamer braided line 2 oz. sinker with 4-feet of 40-pound test momo leader tied to a

3/0 hook.

Large black drum hang out around most bridge pilings; I find those that are closer to shore to be the most productive.

Call any of the local bait shops a few days ahead and reserve a dozen medium blue crabs.

A medium crab can be cut in half and used as two baits large crabs can be cut into four baits. Remove the top cap, cut the legs off, and insert the hook through one leg socket and out the other.

Bridge anglers can drop their line straight down alongside the piling and hang on.

Boaters have a more difficult task. You need to anchor under the bridge with the stern of the boat within 4 to 5 feet from the outmost piling. Boaters should be prepared for a quick release of their anchor when a large fish is hooked. A common tool used is a fender or float tied above the water line to the anchor line.

When a large fish is hooked the anchor line is released. The current will drift the boat away from the

with Captain Rick Grassett This is a great month for snook on shallow flats. Reds and trout will also be more active as the water warms and baitfish become more plentiful. You might find Spanish mackerel, blues and pompano in passes or on deep grass flats. Look for Spanish mackerel, false albacore (little tunny), cobia and tripletail in the coastal gulf this month. Tarpon should also make an appearance in back country areas and in the coastal gulf later in the month.

Tarpon will become more plentiful this month as resident fish make their way out of rivers and creeks and early arriving migratory fish begin to show along beaches, particularly by the end of the month. Water temperature in the gulf is a key factor with 80 degrees being an optimum temperature. As the water warms towards that, fish will become more plentiful. Resident fish may be rolling on deep grass flats in some of the same places that you find trout, laid up on edges of shallow grass flats or along sand bars. Spin anglers might score with a DOA Shrimp, Baitbuster or 4” CAL Shad Tail while fly anglers might connect with a black Deceiver or Tarpon Bunny fly. Keep your tarpon tackle, rigged and ready, this time of year so you’re able to take advantage of any opportunity that arises.

Snook and reds remain closed to harvest south of State Rd 64 in Manatee County on the west coast of Florida, south to the south bank of Gordon Pass in Collier County.

Reds and snook are catch and release only in that zone until May 31, 2022.

Spotted Seatrout has reopened in that zone with a 3 fish per person, bag limit and a 6 fish boat limit. Trout must be from 15”-19” with one allowed per vessel over 19”. Full regulations and details can be viewed at https://myfwc. com/ .

22

Snook should be staging on flats, around sand and oyster bars, on points of islands and around docks and bridges close to passes in the ICW. Spin anglers should score with CAL jigs and a variety of plastic tails including the 4” CAL Shad, DOA Baitbusters or surface walking top water plugs, like the DOA PT. Fish the edges of bars and potholes when the tide is low and mangrove shorelines or points of islands when the tide is high. You’ll also find snook around docks and bridges in the ICW. Night snook fishing should be productive with small white flies, like my Grassett Snook Minnow fly, CAL jigs with shad tails and jerk worms, DOA Shrimp and Tiny TerrorEyz. Fish peak tidal flows for the best action.

Reds will spend more time feeding on shallow flats due to more plentiful bait. I am seeing a decline in reds and big trout in shallow water in many of the areas that I fish, which makes them even harder to catch with lures and flies. Look for them in potholes, the edges of bars and around docks when the tide is low. You should find them higher on flats over shallow grass or around mangrove shorelines when the tide is high. I like a 1/16oz CAL jig with a shad tail or jerk worm for reds in shallow water. They are easy to fish in shallow water, come in multiple colors and are a good way to find reds. My Grassett Flats Minnow is my “go to” fly for reds. It fishes well in shallow water and its bend back design makes it very weedless. You may also find big trout in skinny water in many of the same places that you find reds. The same lures, flies and techniques used to find and catch reds will also work for big trout.

Trout should be plentiful on deep grass flats. I like to drift and cast ahead of my drift with CAL jigs and a variety of plastic tails or DOA Deadly Combos.

Fly anglers should score with weighted flies on sink tip fly lines. I tie Clousers with Ultra Hair on long shank hooks so that they are durable and will

When finished return to the fender or float and retie. Many anglers are now using their Spot Lock feature on their trolling motor instead.

Nighttime fishing has many rewards don’t be surprised if you hook on to a large tarpon or a redfish while fishing for Black Drum around the bridges.

The slot size for Black Drum is 14 to 24 inches and only 5-harvester per day may possess one over 24 inches so please obey the rules.

Southwest Florida hold up to toothy and rough mouth fish. Deep grass flats with a close proximity to passes and usually good due to strong tidal flow.

You might also find blues, Spanish mackerel, pompano or flounder mixed with trout on deep grass flats. The same lures, flies and techniques that you use to find trout on deep grass will work for these species, too.

You’ll need to tip your leader with wire or heavy fluorocarbon when blues and mackerel are around. I prefer heavy fluorocarbon and long shank hooks whenever possible, since that usually won’t affect the trout bite. Blues and mackerel usually don’t feed on the surface in the bay like they do in the open gulf, but you may see bait showering or boils indicating fast moving fish, feeding just below the surface. Pompano may “skip” when you run or drift past them giving their location away. When that happens, circle back upwind and drift the area. Flounder are often found in potholes, on the edges of bars or on mud bottom.

There should be good action in the coastal gulf this month with Spanish and king mackerel, false albacore (little tunny), cobia and tripletail. Look for Spanish mackerel or albies feeding on the surface. You might find tripletail or cobia around crab trap floats. Your tarpon spin or fly tackle can do double duty for cobia and medium spinning tackle or an 8 or 9-weight fly rod will cover everything else.

Artificial reefs or natural areas of hard bottom may hold any of these species. When fishing these areas you will need to get your lure, fly or bait down in the water column to the level where fish are located.

Spring Fishing Has Begun Spring fishing is here. The sailfish have made their way down to Miami and are sticking around. Almost every day this past week we have had 4 or 5 sailfish releases and have seen up to a dozen sailfish per day. Also very encouraging, is the number of multiples we have had.

When the sailfish are coming through in good numbers it is very common to hook 3, 4, 5 and even 6 sailfish at one time.

Its controlled chaos if everyone follows the captains and mates’ instructions.

From my vantage point in the tower, it is easy to see which lines are going to cross and all my anglers usually do a great job. I am proud to say that when we hook multiples, we lose very few fish. Occasionally, you get a sailfish to do something unexpected, but we are usually on top of it. The sailfish bite should continue to stay at this level if not even improve well into the beginning of May. We have also started to see a few of the bigger blackfin tunas. These fish will increase in numbers and size every week from now into the end of May and beginning of June. Last year, May was nothing short of excellent for the bigger blackfin tunas. We have also seen and heard of a few yellowfins this past month.

These are not the 30-to80-pound yellowfin tunas we find in the Bahamas but are 125-to-180-pound brutes. Just two weeks ago we hooked a huge yellowfin tuna. We were kitefishing and saw a small

Southeast Coast

splash on the left long kite bait. We had already caught 3 sailfish and figured this was another sailfish. We fed the fish the bait and it ran on the surface just like a sailfish would. Then it took a steady run going deeper which sailfish also do. We figured it was another sail, so we stood still and let the fish scope up on its own. It did and then we started chasing it down with the angler up on the bow. Then to everyone’s surprise, we could all clearly see the super long sickle fins of a yellowfin tuna as this tuna started racing on the top. At one point it was swimming in the swell with its sickle fin slicing the water like a submarine’s periscope. I wish I had it on video as it was one of the wildest things I have seen while fishing. We had the right angler on the rod as this guy has caught countless of giant bluefins up north. With that said though, fishing only 20-pound line and 30-pound leader, the leader finally wore through and bye bye yellowfin. We didn’t get it but got to see something very special.

So, besides sailfish and tunas, spring also brings bigger kingfish and more mahis on the edge. All very good things. Only downside is that I only have two open dates left in April out of the rest of the month, and May is already over half booked as well.

Don’t wait till the last minute, book now and grab

one of those open dates. I’m excited about spring fishing in Miami and so should you!

Marathon/Florida Keys

May is the month of an abundance of fishing opportunities in the Marathon area. We will focus on three primary fisheries.

water surface or weed lines to indicate the presence of the dolphin. The usual assortment of lures and rigged ballyhoo do the trick.

plus gags at 20-plus pounds and good size reds going 10 to 15 pounds. Use the same setup and baits here as you would on the reef.

The true reason for the season is found nearshore around the bridges. This is where we fish for tarpon, the Silver King. The tarpon run has been fastpaced since the end of March, and it will only improve until it peaks during May. On an average four-hour outing, you’ll see a couple hundred tarpon rolling, and the chances of landing the fish of a lifetime are very good.

On the reef, May 1 heralds the opening of grouper season. Black, gag and red grouper will hit the docks in great numbers this month.

As for the snapper action on the reef, the primary players are yellowtail and mangrove.

In the Marathon area, we have the Long Key Bridge, the Seven Mile Bridge and Bahia Honda Bridge. The preferred baits vary bridge-to-bridge, with mullet and pinfish the choice at Long Key and Seven Mile, while Bahia Honda is all about crabs. Talk to your local tackle shop to see what the tarpon are biting best and what rigs to use.

Offshore, the dolphin (mahi mahi) bite kicks into gear steadily at this point. You can expect larger fish this month, with the smaller schoolies arriving in June. Now is the time for the gaffers and slammers.

Look for birds, especially frigates, working the

Black grouper is typically the primary target for anglers on the reef. They’re found in the same areas we fish for yellowtail snapper, which are beginning their spawn. Of the three primary grouper varieties, blacks are probably the toughest, so heavy tackle is necessary to land them.

The SeaSquared captains use Penn Torque Lever Drag reels in the 30-pound class, matched with a 30- to 50-pound Star conventional rod. On the reef, our leaders are typically 60-pound Seaguar fluorocarbon, matched to an 8/0 Owner AKI hook.

The grouper are big so, naturally, the baits are big. Grunts, bluerunners with their tails trimmed and legal-size snappers, preferably 12- to 14inch yellowtails. These baits usually don’t last long when dropped to the bottom in 50 to 70 feet of water.

The Atlantic wrecks also hold large black grouper

This is the best time of year to get your biggest flag yellowtail, with fish upward of six pounds and more hitting the docks on a regular basis. Again, the deeper areas in 60 to 100 feet are most consistent for the flags.

You may also find mangrove snapper mixed in. These are also forming their annual congregation on the reef, and most are large, mature fish in the fourto seven-pound category.

The action on the wrecks also heats up in May, with lots of mutton snapper, amberjack, African pompano and, as mentioned above, grouper. Pinfish, pilchards or live ballyhoo are the preferred baits for all but the grouper.

We’re still catching permit up to 30 pounds on the artificial reefs. Use small crabs on a jighead.

Jason Hermann from Philly knocked four different species, including this mutton snapper, off of his bucket list while fishing with Capt. Jason Bell and SeaSquared Charters, 305-393-2929, SeaSquaredCharters.com

When our trips are not focusing on Tarpon we have been having a blast targeting both Redfish and Snook along the oasis of mangrove-laden islands scattered through out the St Martins Keys in Homosassa. Capt. Kyle Messier, 352634-4002, www.crystalriverfishing.com

Not a bad consolation prize! The snook is Florida’s most popular saltwater gamefish and catching snook is always fun and a big deal. Capt. Mo Estevez, Miami BoneFishing, 786-853-1409.

Look for reds, snook and larger trout in shallow water. Fishing deep grass flats of Sarasota Bay is a usually a good choice for action with a variety of species including trout, pompano, Spanish mackerel and more.

Capt. Rick Grassett, Snook Fin-Addict Guide Service, 941-923-7799.

One of the most desired sport fish, Sailfish, have been making their presence known.

Multiple bites and landings have been coming on a regular basis. While catching one in a trip is exciting, hooking a few at the same time can be exhilarating! It doesn’t happen every day but has been a good reason to spend at least some of the fishing time trying for the prized sport fish. Capt.

David Ide, Lady Pamela II, 954-761-8045.

www.TheMariner.com A VESSEL SAFETY CHECK - STUART - Despite numerous COVID-19 restrictions, more and more boaters are taking to the water to alleviate at-home boredom while taking advantage of the open-air benefits and more pandemic-free aspects of recreational boating. But if you haven’t been out boating in a while, are your vessel’s lights operating properly? Do you have a sufficient number of life jackets for the number of passengers aboard? Is your engine’s ventilation system up to par? To get you started on a new year boating adventure, now may be a perfect time to consider getting a 2022 Vessel Safety Check (VSC) offered by certified VSC examiners from the St. Lucie River Power Squadron, also known as America’s Boating Club of Martin County. These trained VSC examiners from the local squadron will point out safety features such as minimum requirements required by the U.S. Coast Guard, examine fundamental mechanical aspects of your vessel, and answer questions how you can have more fun safely on the water. These are just a few of the many discussion points covered in this voluntary examination. As an added plus, Vessel Safety Checks are free to boat owners. And if you don’t “pass muster” with the thorough examination, the summary report is yours and yours alone. No record of any possible deficiencies will be reported to the USCG, state agency or any other authority. Want to know more about this complimentary Vessel Safety Check program? Contact Peter Burns at (772) 486-2684 or burnspet@aol.com. St. Lucie River Power Squadron, one of more than 300 squadrons nationwide, also offers safe boating classes to the public. Check on their website, www.slrps.org, when classes will resume. Information about the parent organization is available at www.usps.org.

COAST GUARD AUXILIARY OFFERS VESSEL SAFETY CHECKS AND SAFE BOATING CLASSES - A Vessel Safety Check is a complimentary check of your boat conducted by members of the Auxiliary, confirming that it meets both federal and state requirements for safety. No citations are issued, and the results of the safety check are not reported to any enforcement agency, but a decal is awarded to display when the vessel has passed the examination.

The Vessel Safety Check (VSC) is performed at your boat, whether in a slip, at the launch ramp, or in your driveway, by a certified Vessel Examiner, at a mutually-convenient time. It usually takes 20-45 minutes, depending on the size of your boat. After successful inspection you are awarded a vessel safety check sticker which is affixed to your vessel near your state registration sticker. Call 727-898-1324 to find an inspector or go to www.cgaux.org/vsc/.

CLEARWATER COAST GUARD AUXILIARY TEACHING BOATING SAFETY CLASSES ONLINE - 2022 - A New Way to Learn … A New Crop of Safe Boaters. With the advent of COVID-19, the Coast Guard Auxiliary was advised to discontinue in-person classes for the safety of the instructors and students.

The good news is that the State of Florida (FWC) and the National Association of Boating Law Administrators (NASBLA) have approved the Coast Guard Auxiliary to conduct online classes. These classes are not your standard webinar sessions where the students sit at their computers and are lectured at. And they’re not animated cartoon sessions where you have to keep pressing enter to get to the next topic.

Classes are $40 per student and include the books, supplemental materials and course completion certificates. The classes being offered by the Clearwater Coast Guard Auxiliary are conducted on Zoom with the same instructors the student would have had in the classroom and allowing lots of questions and answers. In addition, because the classes are on the Internet,

there’s no commuting to a classroom – the students can be anywhere in Florida! The boating safety class is also a requirement for many boaters in Florida. In the Sunshine State, anyone born after Jan. 1, 1988, must successfully complete a boater safety course approved by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) in order to operate any boat powered by more than 10 horsepower, and they are required to carry their boater education card with them when out on the water along with picture ID. Contact the Coast Guard Auxiliary, Clearwater Flotilla, for boating safety classes at: www.clwboatingsafety.com or by email at clwtr.auxboating@gmail.com or call 727469-8895.
