Re: Seacoast Banking Corporation of Florida (the “Company”) Registration Statement
on Form S-4 (File No. 333-226225), as amended (the “Registration Statement”)—Acceleration Request
Ladies and Gentlemen:
Pursuant to Rule 461
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), the Company hereby requests that the Securities
and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) accelerate the effective date of the above-referenced Registration
Statement and declare the Registration Statement, as amended, effective under the Securities Act at 4:30 p.m., Eastern Time, on
August 28, 2018, or as soon thereafter as practicable. We also request that the Commission specifically confirm such effective
date and time to us in writing.
In connection with
the Company’s request for acceleration of the effective date of the above-referenced Registration Statement, the Company
hereby acknowledges the following: (1) should the Commission or the staff, acting pursuant to delegated authority, declare the
filing effective, it does not foreclose the Commission from taking any action with respect to the filing; (2) the action of the
Commission or the staff, acting pursuant to delegated authority, in declaring the filing effective, does not relieve the Company
from its full responsibility for the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in the filing; and (3) the Company may not assert
staff comments and the declaration of effectiveness as a defense in any proceeding initiated by the Commission or any person under
the federal securities laws of the United States.
Sincerely,
SEACOAST BANKING CORPORATION OF FLORIDA
