Congratulations to Van Wichers, (11 yrs. old) who took the Top Angler award at this year's Palm Beach Sailfish Classic awards dinner last evening after fishing on Masque, a 65 ft. Viking. And, congratulations to the crew of the Masque, Top Boat. Included in the picture holding trophies in addition to Van are owner and angler Mark Schwartz, Top Captain, Wink Doerzbacher, and Gar Womer and Carl Copeland who shared Top Mate award.
Van caught 6 of the 11 sails that were released from the Masque. And, they did all this while while mechanical problems limited them to 1 1/2 fishing days in this 3 day of 4 fishing tournament.
Great job, Van!
