Mercury Shelly Beach Ski Boat Festival 2017 is ON!

Mercury Shelly Beach Ski Boat Festival 2017 is ON!

It’s that busy time of the year again, when teams from all over the country assemble to compete in Shelley Beach. The Mercury Shelly Beach Ski Boat Festival 2017 is ON!

You can read all about it right here…

We have a few correspondents around the place, and will keep you posted as the event unfolds.

First report in is from Craig at The Tackle Box (https://thesardine.co.za/tackle-box-shelley-beach/) – right close to the Shelley Beach Ski-Boat Club (or more officially The Sonny Evans Small Craft Harbour). Craig reports that yesterday’s leader was Gert Kruggel on the boat Poker Face. They hauled a nice 23.5kg yellowfin to the scales.

Another really good fish reported was a 12.5kg Dorado, and then this nice 19.5kg yellowfin tuna by young Owen Barclay.

Nice at the Mercury Shelly Beach Ski Boat Festival 2017

This morning’s weather was absolutely fantastic, so those leader fish will most certainly be challenged proper this afternoon at the scales.

Stay in touch for news from the Mercury Shelley Beach Ski-Boat Club comp…with the weather gone bad mid-morning, the weigh in for today might have started already!

Thanks to Craig at The Tackle Box right at Shelley Beach, for the news and pics…
