    We are excited to welcome Jill Bessetti as our guest speaker for the September Luncheon!


    Jill Bessetti is the Southern Region Vice President for The American Waterways Operators (AWO). AWO is the tugboat, towboat, and barge industry’s advocate, resource and united voice for safe, sustainable and efficient transportation on American’s waterways, oceans and coasts.

    Retiring at the rank of Commander, after a 21-year career in the United States Coast Guard, she joined the AWO staff in May of 2024. Her experience with the USCG in regulatory oversight was focused on vessel inspections (both foreign and domestic), emergency response, and waterways and facility management.  She helped lay the groundwork for Subchapter M implementation in the Eighth Coast Guard District as the D8 Towing Vessel Coordinator from 2016-2024.  Now with AWO, Jill’s focus is on representing the over 300 member companies of AWO to advocate for protection of the Jones Act, build and maintain the formal quality safety partnership with the USCG, and represent and promote the maritime industry.

    Jill is a member of the New Orleans Mariners Club, board member of the New Orleans area Propeller Club, and ADMIRALTY, a networking group for young professionals in the maritime industry. She serves on the advisory board for the Louisiana Maritime Academy, SCI’s Lifesaving award subcommittee, participates in We Work the Waterways events, serves as representative on the Joint Hurricane Protocol team with GICA, and is an adjunct professor of Environmental Science.

    Jill holds an undergraduate degree in Biology and Master’s degrees in both Environmental Management and Policy and Teaching.

    Dear Mariners Club Members,

    We are excited to announce the 2026 Mariners Club Charity Golf Tournament, taking place on October 15, 2026, at the beautiful Bayou Oaks at City Park – South Course!

    This year, we are once again proud to support the CURED Foundation (Campaign Urging Research for Eosinophilic Disease). You can learn more about their incredible mission here:
    https://curedfoundation.org/egids/

    Thanks to the generosity of our sponsors, players, and supporters, last year’s tournament raised over $10,000 for CURED. This year, we are aiming even higher — and with your help, we believe we can make an even greater impact for families affected by this disease.

    We are currently seeking tournament sponsors at all levels. Sponsorship opportunities are a fantastic way to promote your company while supporting an outstanding charitable cause. From tee box sponsors to premium hole activations and contest sponsorships, there are plenty of ways to get involved and make your business visible throughout the event.
