    • LNM: USCG Navigation Center – Website Update

      U.S. COAST GUARD NAVIGATION CENTER – WEBSITE UPDATE

      The U.S. Coast Guard Navigation Center is going to transition the Navigation Center website to a new, enhanced version in the first quarter of 2022. As part of this transition, URLs will be updated across the site including URLs linked to PDFs. Therefore, once the transition is complete, legacy site URLS will no longer function, including bookmarked URLs and URLs used in automatic downloading of data and/or products. Outdated URLs will automatically redirect to the home page of the site, and from there you will be able to easily navigate to your preferred page. Below are a few of the “old”/new URL pairs listed for your convenience. Please note that the new URLs will not be active until we launch the new website. Of course, once it is launched, the new URLs will be available for re-bookmarking. As a reminder, these are top level URLs that may contain additional links that you use.
      This notice will be updated when the final launch date is determined and another notice will be issued to notify you when the site goes live.
      Questions/concerns may be directed to the NAVCENWebTEAM@uscg.mil.

    • Opinion: Boating-Boom Bottom Line: A Derelict Vessel Tsunami by Peter Swanson

      Abandoned and derelict boats are a growing problem all along the waterways of America, particularly in places that don’t freeze in winter. Today’s analysis suggests we will soon be seeing a tsunami of wrecks and soon-to-be wrecks, rendering today’s blight almost insignificant by comparison.

      In Green Cove Springs, Florida, one boat is aground (there are four altogether) and another is anchored without an owner aboard, which appears to be the case for most of the other 20 or so vessels that have come here over the past few years.

      Thanks to you we’re starting this year on a high note: we met our matching challenge for Recycle for Reefs! Your gifts in December put us over the top and we are thrilled to use $60,000 to support oyster shell recycling. Learn more about recycling here

      As you may know by now, there’s another exciting way to support oyster restoration: Adopt an Oyster. The best time to adopt oysters, in our humble opinion, is right now – for Valentine’s Day! Visit the adoption page, here, to honor your loved one, snag one of our limited edition 40th anniversary oyster knives, enjoy a discount coupon for Locals Seafood and their ship anywhere oyster box, which could be a great date night idea! You can also upgrade your adoption and get a custom valentine. To share the love, adopt before February 9th!

      Stay safe and warm,
