The Explorer delivered the trip of a lifetime for Jess King and Elizabeth Rasch on August 22. Here’s how she told the story on social media:

“Our last day in Costa Rica was an all day off shore fishing trip, and it was one of the best ones! Elizabeth Rasch and I both caught a Blue Marlin!!”

“Hers was 450 lbs and the biggest catch of the day out of all the boats! Took her an hour to get it in!!”

“Shortly after I got another Yellow Fin Tuna!!”

“This has been the most amazing trip of a lifetime!! I will be returning!!”

Trey Taparauskas and Frank Doss lit up the scoreboard on August 3 with Captain William reporting a four-species day. First up was this incredible Blue Marlin release:

A random Dorado also found his way to the fish box.

The final fish of the day was this awesome Sailfish battle and release.

Captain William pulled double-duty on August 2. The morning 5 hour session featured this stunning Blue Marlin release by angler Scott Swanson.

The end of the mighty flagship’s ten hour day was this send-off from a monster Whale (baleena en espanol). What a treat:
