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:

Then the Yellowfin Tuna swarmed the flagship’s spread and was no match for the mighty Wanderer.

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.

High off of this amazing catch, the mighty Wanderer welcomed Martin Claurl’s family for a fun afternoon of rod-bending:

This group left the boat flush with Yellowfin Tuna filets, plus added this unusual Needlefish for the ceviche tray.

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