Spirits Soar at Second Annual VBBT
August 25, 2005

Kick-Off Party The start of the second annual Virginia Beach Billfish Tournament was marked by high spirits and camaraderie. This year 42 boats are competing for a record purse of $234,000.00, which includes a guaranteed $10,000.00 bonus to the top team.

As participants checked in and met old friends the party atmosphere continued to grow. After a top notch meal served by Outback Steakhouse the group danced the night away to the the Slapwater Band.

Was it the Weather or the Party?
Kick-Off PartyThe party continued after the tournament tent closed down and with forecasts of NE winds at 15-20 kts. and 3-6 ft. seas the entire fleet decided to lay the first day… in anticipation of better weather or to recover? In the end it doesn't matter, and the final two days of fishing are sure to bring some excitement!
