Directions: Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Combine bell peppers, celery, scallions, mayonnaise, panko, parsley, and all-purpose seasoning in a large bowl and mix. Gently fold in crab meat. Scoop crabmeat mixture into the cavity of each raw spiny lobster, and pack it down firmly.

Preheat large ovenproof pan over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon oil. Place lobsters stuffing side down and cook for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown. Flip and place the whole pan in the preheated oven. Cook stuffed lobsters for another 4 to 5 minutes or until the lobster is just almost cooked in the thickest part of the tail. Serve warm with melted butter and fresh lemon halves.

Fresh Tip: Add a squeeze of lemon, a dash or two of seafood seasoning and some fresh garlic to your melted dipping butter.

Made in the USA, Bio-based Metal Polish meets the stringent requirements of the California Air Resources Board (CARB). While safe to use, the formula is powerful.

It quickly removes oxidation, tarnish, surface rust and water spots from stainless steel, chrome, aluminum, brass, bronze and copper. It polishes to a high shine and leaves a brilliant protective coating. It’s perfect for cleaning heat bluing off chromed exhaust pipes. Not just for metal, this versatile product also eliminates black marks on porcelain, as well as road tar and oil from Plexiglas, hard plastic and painted surfaces.

Along with restoring the metal to a high shine, it leaves a protective coating that lasts for months. A one-pound container of Iosso Bio-based Metal Polish costs $25; five pounds is $90.

Powerboat P1 AppointsRamsberger as New President and CEO in the United States

A

POPKA, FL - Powerboat P1 Management, the international marine motorsport promoter headquartered in the United Kingdom, has announced the appointment of Tim Ramsberger as President & Chief Executive of its United States operation, underscoring the company’s mission to strengthen its leading position in the market in line with its global strategic plan.

Vastly experienced, with considerable knowledge of the sports, entertainment and tourism industries, Ramsberger will be based in Florida and take up his new position immediately. Powerboat P1 Management’s CEO, Azam Rangoonwala will continue in his global role at the London office and become Chairman of Powerboat P1 USA. In line with the continued advancement of Powerboat P1’s organizational structures to effectively support the key pillars of the strategic plan, Ramsberger will have overarching responsibility for all of Powerboat P1 USA’s commercial, race event, marketing, communications and digital activities in the United States to deliver an integrated revenue and events growth strategy for the P1 Offshore and P1 AquaX brands.

With a proven track record in business development, Ramsberger has over three decades of executive business, legal, sports management and tourism experience for globally-recognized organizations including Disney Sports, FIFA World Cup, Olympic Organizing Committee, Andretti Sports Marketing and Indy Car. He joins Powerboat P1 USA from Visit St. Pete/Clearwater on Florida’s Gulf Coast where he has been Chief Operating Officer since 2016, successfully rebuilding and rebranding the Sports Commission and Community/Brand Engagement departments to deliver significant growth in room nights and consumer engagement. The role involved financial and budget planning and management, with the emphasis

on strategic initiatives.

Rangoonwala, who will continue to lead the company’s national and international business development including new events, major sponsorships and growing competitor numbers, said: “In a rapidly evolving and highly competitive sports industry still dealing with the impact of the pandemic, it’s vital that we look at our business differently and find new ways to continue to develop our primary market in the United States and increase revenues for reinvestment in the sport’s future growth.

This new role reflects that need and positions Powerboat P1 not only to exploit new revenue streams for the benefit of the sport but also to make marine motorsport more attractive and accessible. Tim’s extensive experience and accomplishments in key sectors such as financial and strategic planning, operational management, sponsorship and partnership development, and sports and entertainment law make him ideally placed to lead our US team at this exciting time. I am looking forward to working with him to develop our existing business and to identify and convert new opportunities.”

Ramsberger’s appointment comes at a time of change and growth for both the world of marine motorsport and Powerboat P1 USA, where he will focus on the core business, Florida race events and support the Chairman on business development opportunities to realize P1 USA’s commercial and sporting potential. He said: “I’m thrilled and honored to join the P1 team and lead our efforts to set a new standard of excellence for Offshore Racing. Growing up in and around a variety of watersports together with my professional career in international events, motorsports and other aspirational lifestyle sports and events provides a solid foundation for the new journey ahead.”

T

raditionally, boaters have been really in tune with preserving the waters. With heightened focus on environmental issues these days, it’s all the easier to make the next generation just as aware and as protective.

regulations governing sizes you can keep, along with bag limits.

Follow these ideas to ensure you raise conservationminded kid boaters.

Then, when you take your kids out, teach them how to size up a fish; if the fish is borderline acceptable, release it. On a related note, never dispose of monofilament line near the water, as it poses a danger to all sorts of wildlife.

1. Participate in Beach Cleanups State parks, local municipalities, and all sorts of nonprofits host these events. They also often repeat during the year along the same stretches of sand. Finding one in your areas is as easy as Googling “beach cleanup near me.”

4. Steer Clear of Sensitive Areas Just as you can teach your kids “red right return,” tell (and show) them it’s never good to boat in shallow waters or pass close to shore at high speed. Point out potentially fragile vegetation and wildlife nesting in or near these waters, for example.

Note that some organizers even provide you with buckets to collect the plastic bags and other garbage that collects along the beach.

5. Make Maintenance Mess-Free We know a few kids who enjoy helping Mom and Dad with maintenance tasks, like checking the oil. Set an example by placing oil-absorbent pads in your bilge and under your engine, to catch potential drips.

2. Grab Your Own Garbage Speaking of garbage, teach your conservation-minded kid boaters that everything you bring onboard needs to leave with you. That means nothing being dumped in the water, and disposing of recyclables properly.

3. Catch and Release If you like to fish, first educate yourself about local

Explain that oil and similar fluids should never, ever be allowed to enter the water. Set a further example by checking the pads often, and disposing of them at proper hazardous-waste collection areas at your marina or other locale.

allas, Texas – Suntex Marina Investors, LLC (Suntex), the premier owner and operator of best-in-class marina properties, announced today that Suntex has taken occupancy of the Las Olas Marina in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Suntex will now commence its plans to develop the marina and transform it into a worldclass marine facility. Las Olas Marina is a centerpiece of the world-renowned Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show, and Suntex looks forward to Las Olas Marina becoming a showcase element of the Boat Show once redeveloped. The transition of ownership and operation commenced on Friday, October 1, 2021.

The redevelopment project will begin the first quarter of 2022.

“Everyone at Suntex is extremely excited to have achieved all the prerequisite milestones and we look forward to working with the City of Fort Lauderdale to deliver an iconic and world-class facility,” said David Filler, Investments Partner - Florida & Southeast Regions. “We are thankful for all the support we received from constituents, the City of Fort Lauderdale and City Commissioners in completing this process and embracing the vision of what this facility will provide to the city, county and marine industry.”

Suntex’s initial bid was selected by the city in 2016 and the lease was signed on May 3, 2018. The City Commission gave final site plan approval on July 9, 2019.

Suntex will own and operate the Las Olas Marina for 50-years in partnership with the City of Fort Lauderdale. This multi-million-dollar project is in addition to the $70 million redevelopment the City of Fort Lauderdale has already invested to create waterfront and beach access, public parks, and new parking facilities.

with Captain Sergio Atanes Jigging for Grouper and Other Species in Tampa Bay Deep jigging or vertical jigging is a fishing method that has been practiced around the world, but is just now getting acceptance from the saltwater anglers on the east coast. California, Mexico and Cuba have been yoyo jigging for years and have been very productive.

The introduction of the Butterfly Jigging system several years ago opened the door for other manufactures producing new versions of jigging products.

Basic Find a location with moderate current and look for rocky areas, wrecks or other structure. A good bottom sounder is important in order to read not only the bottom, but the fish. Position the boat directly over the structure or fish, and drop a jig. The weight of the jig is determined by the current and depth of water, so I recommend having a good selection of jigs before starting on you jigging trip.

Technique Grouper This simple technique allows you to drop the jig to the bottom, always staying in touch. By this I mean you must always feel the jig, as this will help in hook setting and also keeping the jig from twisting around your leader or line.

There are several

methods of deep jigging. One is positioning the boat directly over the fish or drifting over the bottom across the rocks, ledges, or wreck. Always drift parallel to the rocks or wreck. Once the fish are located, it’s time to decide which lures will work best, metal jigs or soft plastic bait. Please note that your lure should be heavy enough to always touch bottom at all times.

When you drift beyond the ledge, rocks or wreck area, crank up and start another up current drift. Drop down to the bottom, crank one turn on the reel and start the drift again. Once a fish is hooked, drop a marker over the side, as this will give you a reference point for your next drift or to do a stationary drop.

When drifting for your best position in the boat, a good point to remember is that when “the wind is in your face you are in the right place.”

Anchoring is another choice if there is a strong current or strong wind. Position the boat over the structure and start jigging, allowing the jig to hit bottom every time.

Technique Grunts, Seabass Some great table fair overlooked by many anglers are the grunts and seabass they are tasty in some cases preferred over other species. Your find these fish in the same

with Captain Kyle Messier Crystal River Florida Fishing Action Six inches of rain one day, Fourteen inches of rain over two days, a day of sun here a day of sun there.

What’s going on with this crazy end of summer weather pattern?

From June 1st through September 12th, the areas surrounding Crystal River and Homosassa have received roughly 46” of rain. On average our area rainfall totals hover around 31” during the same time frame with most of that rainfall coming during the late afternoon hours when thunderstorms are more prevalent.

You would have to go all the way back to 1960 to find a similar wet weather pattern when our area saw close to 48” from June through September.

Now most fishing guides know better than to question Mother Nature, but by now you would’ve thought she would have made up her mind by now.

The silver lining of this wet weather pattern is that with overcast skies comes cooler temperatures and lingering

West Central Florida Southwest Coast area as the grouper the only exception is to use small jigs and best worked an piece of FISHBITE CHUNKS in either shrimp or squid flavor it’s a killer and let you catch an average of 5 to 8 grunts on one piece.

Tackle Grouper With metal jigs in fast currents or deep water, I prefer conventional reels with a fast retrieve medium action rod with 40-pound test braided line and a 36-inch40-pound test clear mono leader. I find that a good grade of clear monofilament line works well and has a thinner diameter than fluorocarbon.

In shallow waters of 15 to 30-feet I prefer soft baits on spinning tackle, medium action rod spooled with 30-pound test braided line and a 36-inch fluorocarbon leader of 30-pound test.

A tight drag is recommended since you are fishing over structure, and these fish will head for the nearest hole or structure when they strike.

Under normal conditions I would use a conventional reel for grouper fishing, but I find spinning tackle to be less straining and easier to maintain the proper motion for longer periods of time.

weather usually can be that catalyst for some incredible fishing days especially for those anglers who enjoy casting top water lures.

During a few of our most recent rainy day trips my anglers have enjoyed some great success fishing with “Walk the Dog” style topwater lures such as Rapala Skitterwalks and MirroLure TopDogs. The zig zagging motion these lures make when retrieved drives hungry Snook and Redfish nuts as the rattles in these lures clack back and forth.

When choosing the right TopWater for the day I find it more important to choose the right size instead of color. Considering most species of fish including Redfish and Snook rely on seeing shadows instead of colors choosing bait’s that mimics the size of the prey in the area is extremely

important.

Boat Events & Shows: Most topwaters can be found in the 3-5” range and if BIG fish are what you’re looking for, typically the bigger the lure the larger the fish.

When fishing topwater lures I usually opt for consistent action so choosing lures closer to 3” works well for me and my style of fishing.

The one constant no matter the size of the lure is that if it’s worked properly with intermittent pauses it will get looks and often lots of looks especially on those overcast days.

with Captain Tom Van Horn Retirement Message from Captain Tom For the past 25 years I have had the honor and privilege to serve as a fishing guide in east Central Florida. Life has been a blessing for me as I have shared my time on the water, my experience and passion with many anglers from around the world. Many becoming passionate anglers themselves and good friends. I’ve guided countless anglers to the catch of a lifetime and watched generations of children grow up to become excellent and passionate anglers themselves and now have children of their own. I’ve been fortunate to live my entire life enjoying Florida’s outdoors and now it is time to shift my focus.

I would also like to take this opportunity to thank you, my past clients, my many sponsors and good friends for helping me along the way sharing time on the water together. My plan is to keep my website blog going and to keep fishing, so you have not seen the last of me. Thanks again for sharing these experiences with me and I will see you on the water.

Fishing offshore, the dolphin (mahi mahi) bite looks to be solid this month, with lots of nice gaffers at eight to ten pounds along with a fair number of larger fish in the 15- to 20-pound class.

The usual assortment of lures – blue and white or pink and white – will serve you best. Rigged ballyhoo are also a good bet. Make sure you have live bait with you as the bigger fish will quite often refuse an artificial but gladly gobble up a pinfish tossed in their direction.

Over the past weeks, we’ve had quite a few wahoo in the offshore waters.

Hopefully, this will continue.

As always, there are loads of blackfin tuna not just at the humps but on weed lines as well. These fish are running eight to t e n pounds.

seasonal changes and indications my favorite time of year to fish has arrived.

Fall has certainly arrived as schools of black and silver mullet, Atlantic menhaden (pogies), thread fin herring (greenies), and bay anchovies (glass minnows) have begun their southerly migration in search of warmer waters. This migration creates a buffet of tasty little baitfish heading south, shadowed by a large array of hungry predators looking to fatten up for the winter.

If weather permits, near-shore opportunities are the best you will see all year. Along the beaches, target areas of concentrated bait schools for a mixed bag of snook, tarpon, kingfish, cobia, jack crevalle, oversized redfish, and sharks. Additionally, snook fishing in the surf has improved as the baitfish move south along the beach. Also look for schools of glass minnows to begin showing up bringing larger Spanish mackerel, bluefish, and tarpon with them. Currently distant summer squalls have elevated the seas to 5 to 6 feet, so be careful and stay safe.

Concentrate your efforts in and around the inlets of Ponce, Port Canaveral, and Sebastian looking for flounder, snook, jack crevalle, and oversized redfish feeding on migrating baitfish along the jetties and just outside the inlets. Easterly swells, elevated and falling tides and aggressive anglers can make for sporty angling conditions, so please pay attention, be patient, and enjoy the rewards. Remember when fishing in these challenging conditions to keep you engine running and

with Captain Chris Johnson October is a transitional month when we begin to see our fall and winter fish arrive in the waters off Marathon. Their arrival coincides with cold fronts, which come later and later every year.

On the reef, the snapper bite has switched from mangroves to yellowtails.

We’re fishing primarily in the 60to 90-foot depths, and the fish average 14 to 16 inches.

Mixed with the yellowtails

Central Florida someone positioned at the helm ready to react if needed, wear your kill switch and be careful anchoring in swift currents.

In the north Indian River and Mosquito Lagoons, higher water levels will allow anglers to venture into areas normally inaccessible during the spring and summer months. Look for slot redfish in close to the edges along the shoreline shadowing pods of finger mullet, and for the larger redfish staged in deeper water ambush sites where migrating mullet are forced to venture out from the safety of the shallow flats. In deeper water areas, look for ladyfish, spotted sea trout, jacks, and tarpon feeding on schools of glass minnows. These schools of fish are easily located by watching for bird and fish activity. Once located, these schools will produce explosive action on small top water plugs, or popping bug flies. Also, if you locate a school of the larger black mullet, try fishing spoons of soft plastic baits deep under the school. Even though, mullet are vegetarians, redfish and sea trout will often mingle in feeding on shrimp and crabs kicked up from the bottom by feeding mullet. If you find heavy mullet schools working the shallows, try fishing with a DOA Shrimp very slow within the mullet school.

are medium-size mutton snappers in the eight- to ten-pound category.

Be sure to keep the chum flow nice and steady. Water temps in the low 80’s keep the snappers’ metabolisms revving on high and, hence, they need to eat more.

We use YellowtailUp and Chum Drop together with ground chum to keep the fish up and feeding in the slick.

As we get to the late part of the month, the grouper will show up, mostly reds and blacks. Use live ballyhoo or pinfish for best results.

We will also see the arrival of large cero mackerel this month. They’re quite tasty and excellent for the smoker. These fish can get up to 10 or 12 pounds. Live pilchards or small, live ballyhoo are the best baits. To prevent bite-offs, be sure to use very light #4 wire six to eight inches in front of your 2/0 or 3/0 Owner SSW hook.

A smattering of king mackerel will make an appearance as well.

They’re typically in the five- to 15-pound class with the larger kings showing later in the fall.

Bayside fishing offers copious amounts of goodsize mangrove snappers.

The seatrout should arrive during the second half of the m ont h .

They’ll be mixed with the mangroves on the grass banks and shallow wrecks.

October also heralds the arrival of the Spanish mackerel run, which really heats up in November.

Finally, if we get an early cold front, we may also find cobia and gag groupers on the shallower wrecks in 10 to 20 feet of water.

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

www.TheMariner.com 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 2021 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.

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.

CLEARWATER COAST GUARD AUXILIARY TEACHING BOATING SAFETY CLASSES ONLINE - 2021 - 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.

The Clearwater Coast Guard Auxiliary is offering outstanding “Virtual Boat America” course options: October 23rd & 24th; November 20th & 21st; December 18th & 19th. All classes are from 9am to 2pm.

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.

www.TheMariner.com

E

scape 30 from RAND Boats embodies a new breed of modern motorboats – the compact day yacht in which all the amenities normally only found in a 40 footer yacht are bundled into a mere 30 feet of head-turning aesthetics, raw performance uncompromising space, and hard top protected living and dining space.

The trailblazing Danish boat manufacturer RAND Boats perfects its range with the new 30ft flagship, Escape 30. RAND Boats combines the lavish features of a large yacht into a practical and compact 30 ft design while cleverly maximizing walking and living space for the ultimate luxurious day and night on the water.

The expansive cockpit is shielded from the elements by a modern hardtop with a large dome windscreen so even unexpected weather

changes can’t spoil the fun. Below deck, passengers can enjoy a naturally illuminated and spacious modern cabin with a roomy double bed and a minimalist bathroom with space to get changed in the hallway next to the day wardrobe.

Embodying RAND’s dedication to space utilization and social focus, all areas offer standing height, plen-ty of room to walk freely, safe high freeboard and an open seating layout for optimum opportunities to mingle even for up to 12 people.

The aft triple sun lounge has perfect views and access to the sea from the large swim platform with yacht style swim ladder. Perfect for enjoying both nature’s beauty and spontaneous dips in the water.

The design, features, and engine are highly customizable, and as with the entire RAND

range you can choose between electric or fuel propulsion. Options include the powerful electric series with a 105 to 460 kW power rating and 47 to 234 kWh battery and the diesel and gasoline series with 350 to 600 HP. Depending on engine, Escape 30 reaches speeds up to 50 knots.

RAND’s ethos of sustainability, Danish design aesthetics, social focus, and high-speed effortless driving combine to make a collection of perfect luxury sports boats to choose from and this compact, smarter version of a 40ft yacht is their latest edition.

During this global pandemic, our social and adventurous opportunities have been limited, but the Escape 30 provides an awe-inspiringly perfect getaway. You can literally escape to a place full of swimming, sunbathing, highspeed sailing, dining, and gathering. Customize and order your Escape 30 at your local RAND Boats dealer now. www.RandBoats.com

32’ ALBIN 32+2 COMMAND BRIDGE 1998

Single Cummins Diesel. It is reported the owner of this 32’ Albin was having it surveyed prior to listing the boat. It was found that there was some delamination and he decided to donate the boat to a charity, rather than having it repaired.

The Albin was driven about 3 hours from its home port to the current storage yard. We are told, but not confirmed, that the Whisper Generator was rebuilt, but never ran.

Location: St. James City, FL.

24’ WELLCRAFT 2400 MARTINIQUE 2001

Engine is raw water cooled 5.0 liter Mercruiser. Apparently a new starter was installed (old starter is also aboard) but something is wrong. If you turn the key you can hear the starter motor turning but it does not engage with the flywheel.The hull looks good. No blisters or damage.We are selling this boat for a Charity that received it as a donation.

Boat was apparently taking on some water through the outdrive. Location: Lottsburg,VA.
