The main tournament was fished on Saturday and Sunday, the wind had got up and by Sunday it was quite lumpy, affecting the fishing as a total of 72 sail the first day as opposed to 26 fish the second day showed. Russ Brumby, Richard Moller and Angus Paul on Neptune, scoring eleven sail the first day and six the second, won overall with these seventeen sail released, just nosing out the team on Unreel of Frank and Flash Tundo and Alistair Cavanagh which was in the lead the first day, but the rally drivers then failed to mesh top gear only finding four the second day and getting pipped at the post!
Third was Simba, fished by Nick Conway, Mark Allen and Mtwali, with nine sailfish and a black marlin of about 90 kgs, released by Nick - this was the only marlin caught.  Top angler was Russ Brumby with 8 sailfish, and his winning team qualify for the IGFA World Championship to be held in Mexico in 2009, a very prestigious event to be held annually.  The tournament was sponsored by Robert J Godson Ltd, of the UK."
