The Coast Guard will enforce a special local regulation for the Clearwater Offshore Nationals on September 27, 2025 and September 28, 2025, to provide for the safety of life on navigable waterways during this event. Our regulation for marine events within the Captain of the Port (COTP) Sector St. Petersburg zone identifies the regulated area for this event in Clearwater, FL. During the enforcement periods, the operator of any vessel in the regulated area must comply with directions from the Patrol Commander or any Official Patrol displaying a Coast Guard ensign.
