Overberg Boat Club Crayfish Derby
Cash prizes for the 3 biggest crayfish.
Overberg Boat Club was established in 1985 and currently has over sixty club members. The club is a hub for boat angling enthusiasts from across the Western Province, and fishermen of all experience levels as well as non-members are always welcome.
Competitions are hosted at least once a month and are split into club competitions and Western Province League Competitions.
Higher level competitions are the Western Province League Competitions in which the prime of the Western Province Fishing Association will compete. These Protea anglers are entrants who have been nominated to compete. These competitors can eventually go on to compete internationally.
Lower level competitions are local club competitions between club members who live in and around Gansbaai.
Enjoy the thrill of the hunt, excitement of the catch, spray of surf on your face and then the taste of fresh fish braaied on the coals after the weigh-in. There is always a tale to tell afterwards...about the one that got away.
Overberg Boat Club has shower facilities with hot water for those who would like to freshen up after a long day out on the water.
Overberg Boat Club has a deep passion when it comes to keeping the art of boat angling alive. Junior development is strongly encouraged and the club strives to promote junior members from when they are novices right through to when they become Protea Anglers.
Overberg Boat Club believes in celebrating life...and a good catch, of course. The club bar stocks a selection of all your favourite adult beverages that are available to members and non-members at competitive prices. There are braai facilities for those that want to bring their own meat. Contact the club directly for more information on gatherings such as the ever popular steak nights which are held on sporadic Friday evenings.
Overberg Boat Club can comfortably accommodate 120 guests and is the ideal venue for wedding receptions, birthday celebrations, family reunions, corporate functions, seminars and workshops. There are tables, chairs, catering equipment, crockery and cutlery available for rent and all you will need to provide are drinking glasses. The team at Overberg Boat Club are on hand to arrange a caterer and musical entertainment for your special event if needed. There is ample safe parking available and sufficient rest rooms in the building. Please call Overberg Boat directly for more information.
