Safe passage caps outstanding marlin season with third-consecutive Tony Myers trophy

THE Mayberry Investments Fishing Team aboard the Viking 62 Safe Passage has capped a standout 2026 season by winning the Tony Myers Trophy, awarded to Jamaica’s top sportfishing boat, for the third-consecutive year (2024, 2025 and 2026). The honour comes after four tournament victories, from January’s rescheduled 2025 Sir Henry Morgan Angling Association (SHMAA) tournament to the 2026 SHMAA tournament, which concluded on Saturday, October 17.

Under Captain Adrian Da Silva the season opened in Port Antonio with the 2025 SHMAA tournament, held in January 2026. Safe Passage delivered a commanding performance at the 62nd staging, releasing nine of the 12 marlin released by the entire fleet to take the title.

In September the team successfully defended its Montego Bay crown at the 65th Montego Bay International Marlin Tournament. Six blue marlin releases over three days, four of them tagged, secured back-to-back victories and a final tally of 1,650 points. Absolutely Special placed second with three releases, followed by Fishy Biz with two.
