A fleet of 110 offshore boats and 8 inshore teams entered the 30th Annual Treasure Coast Builders Association Memorial Weekend Fishing Tournament. Based out of Pirates Cove Marina & Resort in Port Salerno, the Friday night Captains Party had over 600 attendees and they all enjoyed the live & silent auctions, door prizes and complimentary appetizers. New this year was a three-day fishing charter trip from Key West to the Dry Tortugas, donated by SPS The Builders Store. Ticket sales raised over $5,400 for the TCBA Charitable Fund, which provides scholarships to local high school students. Danny Cunningham of Martin County was the lucky winner. Prize purse for each tournament category was $1500 for first place, $750 for second, and $750 for third.
