If you send some time surfing the Internet, you will find 100's of marine oriented websites, some good, some not so good. The trick is to find the ones that you will want to regularly return to. Here are a few I've found:

USCG News: http://coastguardnews.com/ . The official news source of the USCG. Hard to find any thing critical about the CG here.

gCaptain: http://gcaptain.com/maritime/blog/ . Somewhat geared towards ships and Merchant Mariners, but I aways find something interesting here.

Unofficial CG Blog:http://www.cgblog.org/ This is where you will find out what is really going on inside the USCG.

Professional Mariner: http://www.professionalmariner.com/ME2/Default.asp All around super source of news and info.
