      March Porch Party: 3/20

      The Mysterious Origins of Florida
      Friday, March 20 at 7:00 PM at the Gulfport History Museum
      Please let us know if you’re attending! Your RSVP allows us to provide enough space, seating, and refreshments for everyone.

      RSVP
      A color geographic illustration showing the southern half of the continental United States to the northern tip of South America. Yellow text reads
      A color photograph of Hermann Trappman smiling. He is wearing a hat and a collared shirt.
      Florida is so much more than what we see. It’s one of the most incredible pieces of property on the planet Earth. Created out of the collision of continents, it was then torn apart when the Americas were ripped away from Africa. This is a tale of powerful forces and deep time. This is a story of massive earthquakes, volcanoes, and asteroid impacts. This is a chance to discover the real depths of Florida’s very beginnings.

      Gulfport Arts & Heritage is thrilled to welcome our neighbor, Hermann Trappman. Trappman’s journey began when his family relocated to Florida from Rochester, NY. His fascination with fossils was sparked when he found a mammoth toe bone in a construction site at the age of nine and Indian arrowheads on his elementary school playground. Since then, he has been on a lifelong quest to uncover Florida’s geology, ancient creatures, and indigenous people. His artwork can be found in museums and parks throughout the Southeastern United States, in films, books, and publications.

      This event is free and open to the public. Doors open at 6:30pm, and the program begins at 7:00pm. 

      Original Gulfport Walking Tour: 3/14

      East Coast Major Storm Update

      A major winter storm is forecast to impact the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast from Sunday, February 22, through Monday, February 23, 2026.

       
      		 
      		 
      		 
       

      READ IN APP

       

      A powerful nor’easter is expected to produce widespread snowfall of 1 to 2 feet (12–24 inches) and blizzard conditions along coastal areas, resulting in nearly impossible travel and potential for numerous power outages.

         

      Key Weather Hazards

      • Blizzard Conditions: Millions of residents from coastal Delaware through southeastern New England are under blizzard warnings. High winds combined with heavy snow will cause whiteout conditions and near-zero visibility.
           

         

      • Extreme Winds: Wind gusts are expected to range from 40 to 70 mph from coastal New Jersey to southeast New England.
      • Power Outages: The combination of strong winds and the weight of heavy, wet snow is likely to cause scattered to numerous power outages.
      • Coastal Flooding: Moderate to major coastal flooding and high surf are forecast, with inundation of roads and property most likely from Delaware to Cape Cod.

      Travel and Safety Impacts

      Travel will become treacherous to life-threatening starting Sunday afternoon. Officials have urged residents in major metropolitan areas, including New York City, to stay off the roads. Significant disruptions to travel and infrastructure are likely, including widespread flight cancellations and school closures on Monday.

         

      Offshore Waters

      Storm to Hurricane force winds and seas building up to 9-11 meters within 180-360 nm south of the center during the next 36-48 hours.

      March is one of the most popular months for cruising the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean—and for good reason. It sits right at the sweet spot between winter cold fronts and the start of the wetter summer pattern. For cruisers, that means comfortable temperatures, manageable seas, and very low risk of tropical weather…

      Florida Boaters Now Have Access to Free State-Approved Online Boating Safety Course – BoatUS

      BoatUS

      BoatUS is the leading advocate for boating safety in the US and A CRUISERS NET SPONSOR.

      Florida Boaters Can Now Take Free
      State-Approved Boating Safety Course 

      At-home learning helps Florida boaters prepare for the water easily and conveniently 

      A hand holding a key and a cardAI-generated content may be incorrect. 

       

      FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. – February 4, 2026 – The BoatUS Foundation for Boating Safety and Clean Water has launched the only free interactive boating safety course for Florida recreational boaters.

      The course, which is approved by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission and meets state boating safety education requirements, can be taken at the student’s own pace. After passing the exam, they can print their own certificate of completion for immediate use and will receive a lifetime card from the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission.  

      The course provides video demonstrations and sample common boating situations for students to interact with to better understand how to evaluate real-world instances. The learning experience includes storylines where the student “boats” to various places and includes interactive learning tools like flashcards and drag-and-drop features to enhance learning and retention. Course-takers will be able to design and name the virtual boat that takes them through the course and map how far they’ve “traveled” within it. 

       

      In the state of Florida, anyone born on or after January 1, 1988, who operates a vessel powered by 10 horsepower or more must pass an approved boating safety course and have in his/her possession photographic identification and proof of boating safety education completion issued by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission. 

      The online BoatUS Foundation boating safety course and exam are approved by the National Association of State Boating Law Administrators (NASBLA) and recognized by the U.S. Coast Guard as exceeding the minimum requirements for the National Recreational Boating Safety Program. 

      “NASBLA approval of our Florida Boating Safety Course is a meaningful investment in boater safety, said Lynne O’Hearn, Program Manager at BoatUS Foundation. “Boater education is one of the most effective ways to prevent accidents, and this course gives Florida boaters the opportunity to build their skills to better enjoy Florida waterways safely.”  

      To take the course, visit BoatUS.org/Florida. For more information about Florida boating safety education, visit myfwc.com/boating/safety-education. 

      About BoatUS Foundation for Boating Safety and Clean Water:

      The BoatUS Foundation for Boating Safety and Clean Water is a national leader promoting safe, clean and responsible boating. Funded primarily by donations from the more than 740,000 members of Boat Owners Association of The United States (BoatUS), the nonprofit provides innovative educational outreach directly to boaters and anglers with the aim of reducing accidents and fatalities, increasing stewardship of America’s waterways, and keeping boating safe for all. A range of safe and clean boating courses – including the nation’s only free online boating safety course – can be found at BoatUS.org/Courses.
