Willem Franken, CEO. Turbo USA |
Some people might ask why a big turbine engine company might sponsor a kayak fishing tournament. One of the main reasons is the exposure nationally my company receives from this event. I have sponsored some boat tournaments, and the exposure I have received through Extreme has been much greater than any other fishing tournament I have sponsored in the past. It is also a big plus that my company is involved in the green efforts this sport supports. It offers my business a balance in supporting such an
economically friendly event as Extreme Kayak Fishing which supports another great cause the Broward Children’s Center. Since the Extreme Kayak Fishing Magazine launched since 2013 I have received phone calls and picked up two major contracts. Turbo USA will happily support this tournament series for years to come.

Costa is excited to partner with Extreme Kayak Fishing to sponsor a new breed of saltwater tournament that incorporates exciting and challenging fishing, adventure, and a great party on the beach. These events are a new and exciting experience for the anglers, attract great crowds of spectators, and have helped introduce new consumers to our brand. These tournaments are competitive, but also create a spirit of camaraderie among the participants that is not always seen in competitive fishing. The kayak anglers are a group of serious outdoor enthusiasts that are developing new and exciting ways of catching really big fish from really small boats. Our affiliation with Extreme Kayak Fishing has proven to be a successful partnership that is helping us reach a group of unconventional water and fishing enthusiasts. We look forward to working with Joe and Maria for many years to come.

Spencer Milligan, VP |
As South Florida's leading Hobie dealer, we've been at the forefront of the boom in kayak fishing. We're proud to call ourselves one of the original sponsors of the Extreme Kayak Fishing tournament series. And we couldn't be more pleased with the job Joe Hector has done developing South Florida's leading offshore kayak fishing events. Kayak anglers are AVID sportsmen and consumers. No one reaches this local demographic better than Joe. As more people hear about and experience the thrill of catching big fish from a self-propelled water craft (just look at the covers of EKFT magazine!), Nautical Ventures will continue to service their needs with our complete selection of high-performance kayaks, SUPs and sail catamarans. Joe's ability to deliver these customers ensures Nautical Ventures will be a proud partner of the Extreme Kayak Tournament series for many years to come.

Some people wander why such a small startup would sponsor the biggest kayak fishing toumament in the US. Well the answer is simple; we believe in the cause and find that most of the participants, planners, and sponsors, believe as we believe. Children are our legacy, soldiers are our future, and as a subset of these groups, the disabled are especially “Special”. We really appreciate the exposure that we receive and want everyone to understand that you do not have to spend thousands of dollars to have
quality gear, with an emphasis on providing quality platforms, affordable pricing, and community involvement. At Eddy Gear, our complete line of products is dedicated to getting more people on the water, supporting local and national organizations, and supporting the paddle craft community as a whole. We want to thank Maria and Joe for letting us be a part of this wonderful event.

We have been able to capture an untouched market of new anglers all over the world that are Extreme Fishing from their Kayaks. I have seen how quickly this Kayak Fishing craze has taken off and has become a whole new market for many different industries to expand upon.

We are a proud sponsor of your tournaments and will continue to support all of the Extreme Anglers with the most realistic fish mount replicas in the industry.

I’m glad to have been a sponsor since day one. It has opened a new avenue to meet a whole group of new fishermen right in my back yard. It’s also amazing to see the amount of people that travel thousands of miles just to fish in the Extreme tournaments. These people bring their friends and those friends bring theirs making it a great way to sell and show your product to the broader market. I highly recommend sponsoring the Extreme Kayak Fishing Tournaments to everyone that is in the fishing industry trying to showcase and sell their products.
