It was an amazing experience as always to be part of the Offshore World Championship!! Our boat Nauti Ventures ended overall in 10th place out of 37 boats (not 39 sorry) and contributed with 20 Sailfish, 3 Marlin and 1 Mahi for a total of 4500points. The great ocean out of Quepos proved itself once more why where we are located is considered a top fishing destination of the world. This tournament brought total catches of 606 Sailfish, 67 Marlin and 24 mahi mahi in 4 days...those are some impressive numbers, I have to say!!! So be sure to contact us to book your fishing charter in Quepos...we don't disappoint!! Tight Lines!
