Re: 2017 Tournament Sponsors

For the most comfortable seat offshore, get an E Sea Rider Beanbag! Guaranteed! This sponsor needs no introduction since the name says it all. E-Searider Marine Beanbags are the only way to stay comfortable on those long rides out to your fishing spots. The original, and still the leader in the marine beanbag industry.
Pat Bennett and his family have been huge supporters of all fishing and spearfishing events everywhere. Thanks for the many years of support!

E~SeaRider, Highest Quality Marine Bean Bags for Boats

Re: 2017 Tournament Sponsors

In support of our tournament, our club, and the community as a whole, we would like to give a big thanks to the Florida Skin Divers Association for all their efforts. The FSDA is a volunteer, non-profit coalition of dive clubs and individuals who work hard to promote and protect diving rights throughout the state. Their accomplishments are too long to mention and their contributions are with us on a daily basis, so thank you again for everything you do for the community. For more information and to offer your support to this awesome organization, check out the FSDA online and on Facebook. Also, look for a couple Southern Gift Certificates on the table this year for the tournament June 3rd, 2017.

Re: 2017 Tournament Sponsors

Ocean Rhino Spearguns were conceived and designed by Spearfishing Specialties owner Kevin Bruington. Drawing on over 25 years of commercial spearfishing experience, Kevin combined the most popular features from his previous speargun designs with many new & innovative features. These features include: Mini Tech Muzzle Lights, Speed Load Line Kits, Muzzle Kill Spike, Grip Kill Spike, Dual Side Safety levers, CNC Precision Milled Trigger, and Dual Side Spare Shaft Holders. Ocean Rhino Spearguns are user friendly, very accurate, easy to accessorize, extremely durable, and very reliable. A huge thanks to Kevin who has been a great supporter of all spearfishing events over the years and donates his amazng guns along with his time doing seminars etc. Best of luck getting a top prize pick since that gun always goes fast from the prize table.

Ferg's has been our Host for the TBSC over the last five years plus donates Ray's Tickets and a gift basket to the prize table. We look forward to seeing everyone at the Kickoff party for Free Beer and some door prizes on Wednesday, April 12th, at 7:30pm. The main event weigh in will be held at Ferg's on Sunday April 30th for the weigh in and party. Come experience Ferg's today and have a great time!

Re: 2017 Tournament Sponsors

We would like to welcome back and thank the Dive Rite crew of Jared Hires and John McCain for their continued sponsorship of the TBSC and all of the other local events. This year they are donating a couple of their new DIN first stages which is great for all divers. Founded in 1984, Dive Rite is a pioneer in the SCUBA diving equipment industry. Some of Dive Rite's very first products include the first wing solely dedicated for doubles and the first commercially available back plate. Over the years, Dive Rite's product line has continued to grow including: the TransPac, various Wings, Lights, Reels, Nomad Sidemount, the O2ptima CCR, and so much more. Dive Rite also provides an entire range of equipment with the sport diver in mind, such as the Advanced Open Water regulator set and the TravelPac BCD. Brand new to diving or a 20 year veteran, Dive Rite has you covered.
