Mallards & Mercury Ski-Boat Festival 2009 in Shelly Beach

The competition has proved to be so successful that it is now one of the biggest ski-boat competitions in the country and by far the biggest angling event on the Hibiscus Coast, attracting not only +/- 400 anglers and their families from all over the country but hundreds of tourists who are attracted to the “festival” in and around a huge marquee at St. Michaels beach where the weigh-in and all the action takes place.

We have again been able to secure a fully equipped Mallards Cobra Cat 525 fitted with 2 x Mercury 75hp Motors on a galvanised trailer as the first prize for this competition as well as a vehicle sponsored by South Coast Chevrolet for the next biggest fish of another species! With these and many other fantastic prizes already secured we are confident we will again attract a very big entry as well as considerable spectator interest both to the weigh-in as well as all the other entertainment and festivities take place at the marquee throughout the week.

A full Bar will be operating from 10H00 in the Marquee throughout the week. Flea Market & stall daily. 5m Slide & jumping castles & loads more action! A full programme of Entertainment will take place in and around the marquee every day, including face-painting for the kids a fish braai at the weigh-in and a DJ on the go every evening. There will be waitron service in the marquee from the restaurant and + a fast-food section. Check the Board in the marquee for the full programme of Activities.
