PENSACOLA FOILING WEEK

AN INTERNATIONAL SAILING EVENT

By Chloe Cadenhand

Pensacola has been a summer bucket list vacation spot for decades. The endless supply of white sands and emerald-green waters makes our city an irresistible stop for all things beach-related. Whether it’s seafood, sand art or surfing, Pensacola has a niche for everyone— even off-season months are no exception. From February 24 to March 2, Pensacola will host Foiling Week Pensacola, a first of its kind global event dedicated to the sport of hydrofoiling boats and boards, their sailors, designers, manufacturers and faithful followers.

Making its way across the pond to its new home in the U.S., Foiling Week will bring the excitement of cutting-edge foiling technology and thrilling watersports to the shores of the Gulf Coast. For this sevenday celebration, Pensacola will be transformed into the ultimate playground for water enthusiasts.

Foiling is an extreme water sport that utilizes hydrofoils, or long fins that protrude from the bottom of the vessel into the water. The hydrofoils work similarly to an airplane wing, forcing the water pressure downward and propelling the board or boat above the water, effectively reducing drag and increasing speed.

After its 2024 Olympic debut, the sport of foiling has gained traction and attracted many new athletes and fans. At Foiling Week, both experienced sailors and beginners will have the opportunity to sail the latest foiling boats and boards. Spectators can also

purchase tickets to ride foiling sailboats. The main event, however, will be the foiling races.

“Fourteen classes have been confirmed with many more to be announced soon,” founder and president of ‘We Are Foiling’ Luca Rizzotti said. “In just under 100 days, Pensacola will host the North American foiling community for a landmark event.”

For the past 10 years, Foiling Week has been hosted annually in Malcesine, Italy on Lake Garda. Nestled in the northern portion of the country, Lake Garda’s calm surface and Mediterranean breeze made it an ideal spot for hosting the annual sailing competition. This year, Foiling Week will be taking advantage of Pensacola’s strong winds and temperate waters, a combination perfect for foiling.

“Pensacola is a foiler’s paradise and the city has graciously opened their doors to sailors flocking to the flat water and strong breeze. We’ve got a community in the U.S. that’s hungry for more foiling events, and US Sailing is proud to support the extension of Foiling Week into the western hemisphere.” U.S. Sailing Team High Performance Director Marcus Lynch said.

The boat races will be held on Pensacola Bay, benefitting from its depth and consistent conditions. The foiling boards will take on the waves of the Gulf of Mexico in front of the Hilton Hotel on Pensacola Beach and in the Santa Rosa Sound. The event will also showcase a line-up of racing classes including WASZP, Moth, A-Class Catamaran, BirdyFish, Nacra 15 FCS and more.

Some well-known foiling board companies have also announced

that they will participate in this year’s U.S.-based event, including the X-15 and iQFOiL. These companies bring boards with the latest foiling technology to the event for athletes, sailors and the public to watch live-in-action.

“X-15 Class is very excited to be representing Wingfoiling at the first Foiling Week in Pensacola, USA,” X-15 Class Manager Fiona Wilde said. “The X-15 Class North American Cup will give young wingfoilers the opportunity to race against one another with fair one-design equipment.”

A longstanding ‘We Are Foiling’ tradition during each Foiling Week event is to dedicate each edition to a pressing cause in society. Foiling Week Pensacola 2025 will be inspired by #regeneration, a global approach to the climate crisis, weaving biodiversity, human dignity, justice and climate into a mosaic of transformative actions that can end the climate crisis in one generation.

At Foiling Week 2025, attendees can learn about foiling, visit food and merchandise vendors, listen to live music and watch the races. This event offers both foiling enthusiasts and curious Pensacola natives alike an opportunity to experience sailing in a whole new way.

Throughout the week, visitors and locals will also be able to explore the Race Village at the Community Maritime Park in downtown Pensacola, featuring local vendors, merchandise, food and drink, music and live race commentary. Attendees will also have a chance to meet the event's sailing stars, try out various foiling boards and boats (under the supervision of experienced instructors) and engage in the local Mardi Gras festivities.

Organized by We Are Foiling in partnership with Sail Pensacola, this event not only champions competitive sailing but also highlights technology, sustainability, inclusivity, clinics, youth and women's coaching and economic prosperity to Pensacola Bay. The Pensacola Yacht Club will be the home for sailing, ensuring great sailing for racers and fans alike.

The festival is open to the public, including non-sailors, and will deliver entertaining and engaging opportunities to visit Pensacola and enjoy the natural wonder of the Pensacola Bay along with the unique dining and entertainment culture of Pensacola, America’s first sailing city.

Those looking to get close to the action can secure a seat on the VIP Cruise on March 1 and 2. Hosted on

a city ferry, the VIP Cruise features live race commentary, a welcome drink and snacks, a cash bar and an up-close view of some of the world’s fastest sailboats as they fly high above the waters of Pensacola Bay. Cruises will depart at 2 pm from the Ferry Terminal located at 750 Commendencia St. in downtown Pensacola. Tickets are $150 each and can be purchased online at tickettailor.com/ events/foilingweek/1486399. Whether you purchase tickets for the VIP Cruise or simply are looking to try your hand at the sport of foiling under the supervision of a seasoned professional, you’re sure to be captivated by this unique sport.

GERRY

STEEGE SELECTED AS

2025 EMPLOYEE OF THE MONTH

The Escambia County Board of County Commissioners is pleased to recognize Gerry Steege, Emergency Communications Dispatcher in the Emergency Communications Division of the Public Safety Department, as the February 2025 Employee of the Month. The board adopted a proclamation at the Feb. 6 BCC meeting recognizing Steege as the Employee of the Month.

"Thank you for recognizing my hard work," said Steege. "I'm honored to be chosen as Employee of the Month. I'm so glad to be part of Emergency Communications. I appreciate the recognition and will continue to push for excellence. It's motivating to see my contributions valued. Thank you so much again."

As an Emergency Communications Dispatcher, Steege dispatches fire and EMS units while maintaining constant communication with responders, processing 9-1-1 calls, and providing lifesaving pre-arrival and post-dispatch instructions.

A true public servant, Steege has served as a dedicated volunteer firefighter with the Walnut Hill Fire Department. Due to his service and extensive knowledge of Walnut Hill and the surrounding communities, Steege was able to provide vital information to Escambia County Fire Rescue and Escambia County EMS during the recent

JUNIOR

snowstorm that helped fire rescue and EMS units navigate the hazardous roadways.

"Throughout the heavy snowstorm that blanketed Escambia County, Gerry’s knowledge of the North Escambia communities and its roadways proved critical as EMS and fire crews responded to emergency calls," said Public Safety Director Eric Gilmore. "His years of service as a firefighter in Walnut Hill extended to his role as a first responder in Emergency Communications as a dispatcher. We are grateful for his steadfastness to the citizens of Escambia County."

Outside of his normal dispatch and volunteer firefighting duties, Steege has taken on additional equipment replacement projects, including his research, procurement, and installation of the necessary replacement parts for outdated Emergency Communications consoles resulting in significant cost savings for Escambia County taxpayers.

"Gerry's dedication and extra effort in researching and installing replacement parts for Emergency Communications consoles not only saved Escambia County money but also highlighted his value as a team member who goes above and beyond," said Emergency Communications Chief Andrew Hamilton. "We are proud to recognize one of our own who contributes so much behind the scenes."

THE CITY OF PENSACOLA WELCOMES GL52 SERIES TO PENSACOLA BAY

The City of Pensacola welcomed GL52 sailboats to Pensacola Bay this week to test out local weather and water conditions ahead of the upcoming inaugural GL52 Southern Series in Downtown Pensacola March 20.

Thanks in large part to American Magic making Pensacola its new home, the city is now part of the growing world of professional sailing. Teams Wizard and Vesper, along with GL52 Fleet Manager Linda Lindquist, met with local media to discuss Pensacola as a new premier sailing destination and to give a sneak peek of the GL52s in action.

“One of our core missions is to develop American sailing talent — and that’s a

ALGAPLAST

mission of American Magic as well,” Linda Lindquist said. “It starts with creating awareness, getting people around these boats, and seeing what they can do sometimes.”

The GL52 Series is a competition of high-performance sailboats comprising amateur and professional sailors, including those who have competed in the America’s Cup and Olympics. The two-part racing event will consist of six GL52s, each with more than a dozen crew members, with part one beginning March 20 and part two April 10. For more information about the GL52 Series, please visit gl52series.com.

AMERICAN MAGIC AND NAUTOR SWAN SAIL TOGETHER

American Magic, the US challenger for the 36th and 37th America’s Cup, and Nautor Swan, a global leader in yacht design and manufacturing, on Sunday, 19th January, announced their intention to create a strategic partnership aimed at energizing sailing in America and growing the marine industry. The joint venture will initially focus on developing the ClubSwan 28 regatta series, a new competitive platform for sailors and yacht owners in the United States.

In addition, the collaboration will combine American Magic’s cutting-edge engineering and boat-building expertise with Nautor Swan’s innovative yacht design and manufacturing capabilities. Together, they aim to create a unique opportunity for yacht owners and competitive sailors while driving growth and innovation within the broader US sailing and marine industry.

"This joint venture marks a significant step in American Magic’s mission to lead sailing in the United States into a new era of innovation and competition," said Terry Hutchinson, President of Sailing Operations at American Magic. "By combining Nautor Swan’s iconic yacht design with our advanced engineering and boat-building capabilities, we are poised to transform the competitive sailing landscape in America, providing a high-performance platform racing and operations platform for sailors, boat owners, and the broader marine industry."

The joint venture will start with the ClubSwan 28 project, which includes the creation of a new regatta series and the development of a fleet of ClubSwan 28 boats. These boats will debut in a series of regattas planned for late 2025, to be held in Pensacola and across the East Coast. The venture’s immediate goal is to establish a competitive platform that expands the presence of Nautor Swan yachts in the US while supporting American Magic’s ongoing mission to grow the sport and marine industry in the region.

"This is a natural evolution for both Nautor Swan and American Magic," said Giovanni Pomati, CEO of Nautor Swan. "I am particularly pleased with the agreement we’ve reached with American Magic, a team full of talent in every sector. We needed a partner who shares our vision and values, and reenergizing sailing in America is our challenge, both commercially and technologically."

Tyson Lamond, Chief Operations Officer at American Magic, added, ‘The introduction of shared services for the ClubSwan 28 fleet represents a shift in how regattas can be operated. Teams no longer need to travel with full support crews, as we’re providing the operational backbone to ensure yachts are race-ready. This is the first step in a broader vision to streamline competition, build infrastructure for the future, and showcase the capabilities of our Pensacola HighPerformance Sailing Center.’

Federico Michetti, Head of Sport Activities at Nautor Swan, says: ‘In the United States, I have many sailing friends, and I’ve had the privilege of participating in the most iconic events. It’s a long history that has contributed significantly to the growth of techniques and sailors' skills. Terry and his team are great champions and I can confidently say that this project has been in the works for a long time, and I’m sure it will bring new energy to the world of sailing.

In addition to the ClubSwan 28 project, the joint venture will work to promote the sales and servicing of Nautor Swan in the US. Furthermore, the venture will explore other activities, including building Nautor Swan and Bluegame boats at the American Magic facility. This collaboration will elevate the US sailing scene by introducing world-class boats and regattas while cementing both companies’ leadership in marine innovation, competitive performance, and industry growth.

UPDATED: 'GULF OF AMERICA' LAW CHANGES PROPOSED

NEWS SERVICE OF FLORIDA

JIM SAUNDERS

A Senate Republican on Tuesday filed a bill that combs through state laws and would replace references to the “Gulf of Mexico” with the “Gulf of America” after President Donald Trump issued an executive order to rename the gulf.

Sen. Nick DiCeglie, R-Indian Rocks Beach, filed the 70-page bill (SB 608) for consideration during the legislative session that will start March 4. Senate President Ben Albritton, R-Wauchula, issued a statement expressing support for the bill.

Also Tuesday, Rep. Juan Carlos Porras, R-Miami, filed a bill (HB 549) that would require state agencies to update geographic materials to reflect the Gulf of America name. Porras' bill also would require county school boards and charter-school boards to buy instructional materials and library materials that reflect the change.

After Trump issued the executive order last month, Gov. Ron DeSantis jumped on the issue. In an order he issued about a winter storm, DeSantis referred to an “area of low pressure moving across the Gulf of America.”

But that couldn’t change state laws, which include dozens of references to the Gulf of Mexico. DiCegilie’s bill noted that the “Gulf of Mexico spans approximately 1,700 miles along the United States coastline, of which 770 miles are located along the Florida coast.”

It said Trump’s executive order directed the secretary of the U.S. Department of the Interior to “rename the Gulf of Mexico as the ‘Gulf of America’ in order to recognize the importance of the body of water to the United States.”

As an example of the changes that would be made by the bill, legal descriptions of

boundaries of gulf-front counties from Escambia to Collier include references to the Gulf of Mexico, which would change to the Gulf of America. That includes the boundaries of DiCeglie’s home county, Pinellas.

But other references in laws to the Gulf of Mexico are a little more obscure. For instance, a law about the use of tourist-development taxes refers to counties “adjacent to the Gulf of Mexico or the Atlantic Ocean.”

Other laws include references to the Gulf of Mexico in addressing coastal development issues. One such law expresses intent for the Department of Environmental Protection to “establish coastal construction control lines on a county basis along the sand beaches of the state fronting on the Atlantic Ocean, the Gulf of Mexico, or the Straits of Florida.”

Another law defines coastal barrier islands as meaning “geological features which are completely surrounded by marine waters that front upon the open waters of the Atlantic Ocean, the Gulf of Mexico, or the Straits of Florida and are composed of quartz sands, clays, limestone, oolites, rock, coral, coquina, sediment, or other material, including spoil disposal, which features lie above the line of mean high water.”

In addition to the state laws, ordinances in gulf-front counties include references to the Gulf of Mexico.

Trump’s executive order addressed federal references to the gulf’s name, directing the U.S. Board on Geographic Names, which works under the Department of the Interior, to “provide guidance to ensure all federal references to the Gulf of America, including on agency maps, contracts, and other documents and communications shall reflect its renaming.”

UPDATED: NEW SPECIAL SESSION CALLED ON IMMIGRATION

JIM SAUNDERS NEWS SERVICE OF FLORIDA

After a special session late last month spiraled into a clash between Republican legislative leaders and Gov. Ron DeSantis, Florida lawmakers will meet in another special session this week to pass a package of bills targeting illegal immigration — with DeSantis’ support.

Senate President Ben Albritton, R-Wauchula, and House Speaker Daniel Perez, R-Miami, on Monday evening issued a proclamation for a special session that will start Tuesday. They also released summaries of bills that include a series of steps aimed at helping carry out President Donald Trump’s crackdown on illegal immigration.

“Over the last several weeks, there has been a great deal of productive discussion on how the state of Florida can best assist President Trump’s efforts to crackdown on illegal immigration, with a particular focus on partnerships between local, state, and federal law enforcement to arrest, detain, and deport criminal illegal immigrants,” Albritton and Perez said in a joint memo to lawmakers about the newly called special session.

DeSantis issued a statement that described Albritton and Perez as “great partners” and also thanked Agriculture Commissioner Wilton Simpson, whose role in immigration enforcement became a disputed issue during last month’s special session.

“With the enactment of these policies, Florida will help the Trump administration to deliver on the president’s historic mandate to end illegal immigration,” DeSantis said in the statement. “This is a big win for the people of Florida and demonstrates that we will continue to lead."

The tone Monday evening was far different from two weeks ago, when lawmakers convened in a special session called by DeSantis to take up immigration policy and other issues. Albritton and Perez were clearly irked that DeSantis had called the special session, which they described as premature.

ELECTIONS OFFICIALS PUSH BACK IN MAYFIELD BALLOT FIGHT

JIM SAUNDERS NEWS SERVICE OF FLORIDA

State elections officials Monday urged the Florida Supreme Court to reject an attempt by Rep. Debbie Mayfield to run for a Senate seat, saying she is ineligible because of term limits and that Secretary of State Cord Byrd had the authority to keep her off a special-election ballot.

Lawyers for Byrd and Division of Elections Director Maria Matthews filed a 31-page response after Mayfield, R-Melbourne, went to the Supreme Court last week to challenge a decision by elections officials to prevent her from running in Brevard County’s Senate District 19.

The case centers on the state’s termlimits law and how it applies to Mayfield, who is trying to return to a Senate seat she left in November after serving eight years. In a petition filed last week, Mayfield argued, in part, that she is eligible to run in the special election and that the elections officials overstepped their “ministerial” authority in keeping her off the ballot.

But lawyers for the elections officials contended that Mayfield is “constitutionally ineligible” and that Byrd, the state’s chief elections officer, was not required to “suspend common sense or common knowledge” to qualify her for the ballot.

“It’s for much the same reason that the secretary can’t certify the King of England (a non-U.S. citizen) or a notorious serial killer (a convicted felon) for inclusion on a ballot with the hope that a political opponent (if there is one) will file a challenge,” the response said.

Lawyers for Byrd and Matthews also argued that Mayfield should have filed the case in circuit court, rather than going straight to the Supreme Court.. They also said she could have sought an advisory opinion from the secretary of state before trying to qualify.

and overseas voters by the end of this week, according to the petition.

Mayfield was elected in House District 32 in November after she could not run again for the Senate because of eight-year term limits included in the Florida Constitution.

Brevard County Republican Randy Fine, a former state House member, was elected in November to succeed Mayfield in Senate District 19. But Fine subsequently submitted his resignation to run in a special election for a congressional seat that opened when former U.S. Rep. Mike Waltz, R-Fla., was named as President Donald Trump’s national security adviser.

Mayfield decided to run to return to the Senate and submitted her resignation from the House, effective June 9.

After the qualifying period for the Senate special election ended, Matthews on Wednesday wrote a memo to Mayfield that said, “Upon review and consultation with counsel regarding your candidacy for state Senate District 19, the Division of Elections has determined that your name cannot appear on the special election ballot, as it violates article VI, section 4 of the Florida Constitution.”

That part of the Constitution says, “No person may appear on the ballot for re-election” to offices such as senator “if, by the end of the current term of office, the person will have served (or, but for resignation, would have served) in that office for eight consecutive years.”

While Mayfield left the Senate in November after eight consecutive years, her Supreme Court petition contended that she can run in the special election because she is not seeking “re-election.”

The Republican-controlled House and Senate quickly shut down the DeSantis-called session and convened their own session. Lawmakers ditched DeSantis’ proposals and passed an immigration bill that DeSantis threatened to veto.

But with cracking down on illegal immigration a core issue for Republicans — and perhaps the top priority of Trump — rumors of another special session circulated in recent days.

The House is scheduled to convene at 12:15 p.m. Tuesday, while the Senate will convene at 1:15 p.m., according to information posted on their websites. Budget committees in both chambers are expected to take up the bills Wednesday, and the House and Senate will hold floor sessions Thursday.

The bills were filed by Sen. Joe Gruters, R-Sarasota, and Rep. Lawrence McClure, R-Dover. Both lawmakers also sponsored the legislation that passed during the special session in late January.

The bill summaries indicate they include boosting criminal penalties for undocumented immigrants who commit crimes; taking steps to increase local lawenforcement agencies’ cooperation with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement; creating a State Board of Immigration Enforcement made up of the governor, agriculture commissioner, attorney general and chief financial officer; and trying to impose a mandatory death penalty for undocumented immigrants who commit murders or rape children.

“Combining important feedback received from Governor DeSantis and Commissioner Simpson with the very strong legislation passed during Special Session B (the late January session), we are building on the technical assistance from the White House to advance and implement strong policies and provide critical resources to support President Trump’s efforts to combat illegal immigration efficiently and effectively,” the memo from Albritton and Perez said.

“In this case, there’s no clear and certain right for petitioner (Mayfield) to be placed on a ballot so she can run for re-election to an office she held for the preceding eight years,” the response said. “Petitioner simply attempts to create such a right to avoid term limits. And, again, petitioner could have sought declaratory and injunctive relief in circuit court to create or secure this new right. She could have also sought an advisory opinion on her eligibility from the secretary … as others have before submitting their qualifying paperwork. She chose not to do either.”

But in last week’s petition, Mayfield’s attorneys disputed elections officials’ interpretation of the term-limits law and said such eligibility questions could only be resolved in lawsuits.

“Mayfield has duly and timely submitted to the secretary the applicable qualifying fee and all documents necessary to qualify as a Republican candidate for the SD 19 special election,” the petition said. “Accordingly, because the qualifying paperwork is complete on its face and was properly filed, the secretary is legally bound to accept it and recognize Mayfield as a qualified candidate for the SD 19 special election. This is because it is well-settled that the secretary serves a purely ministerial role in processing the qualifying paperwork, and has no authority to determine whether the qualifying paperwork is accurate, or whether there are grounds to challenge Mayfield’s eligibility to run in the special election for SD 19.”

The qualifying period for candidates in Senate District 19 ended at noon Tuesday. A special primary election is scheduled April 1, with a special general election on June 10.

Mayfield’s attorneys argued for emergency action by the Supreme Court because vote-by-mail ballots for the primary election are required to start going to military

“Simply stated … Mayfield is not seeking to appear on the special election ballot ‘for re-election’ to an office she has held for eight consecutive years,” the petition said. “Indeed, Mayfield was already elected, in 2024, to a different office (i.e., the Florida House), and Senator Fine was elected, in 2024, to SD 19, prior to his resignation from that office. As such, based on the plain wording of Section 4 (of the Constitution), Mayfield is not precluded from running anew for SD 19.”

But in the response Monday, attorneys for Byrd and Matthews disputed that interpretation of “re-election.” They wrote that Mayfield is “running for the very same (Senate) seat — she wishes to be re-elected to that seat.” They also cited President Donald Trump returning to the White House last month after a four-year hiatus because of losing the 2020 election to now-former President Joe Biden..

“‘Re-election’ doesn’t hinge on incumbency,” the response said. “An incumbent can be re-elected, but so too can a previous officeholder. President Trump, for example, was re-elected to the office he previously held despite President Biden being the incumbent. Petitioner similarly seeks re-election to the office she held from 2016 to 2024.

Mayfield’s petition asked the Supreme Court to determine that the elections officials exceeded their authority and to ensure that she appears on the special-election ballot.

Three other Republicans — Marcie Adkins, Mark Lightner III and Tim Thomas — and Democrat Vance Ahrens qualified to run in the Senate special election, according to the state Division of Elections website. Candidates also qualified last week for a special election to succeed Mayfield in House District 32.

Mayfield last week accused Gov. Ron DeSantis of orchestrating the decision to keep her off the ballot. The Department of State and its Division of Elections are part of DeSantis’ administration. Mayfield supported Trump over DeSantis in last year’s Republican presidential primary election.
