| Geoff Ferguson where live love to be, on the flybridge |
On Saturday 28th May 2011, Australian Gamefishing lost one of its gentleman. Capt. Geoff Ferguson passed away aged 69 at his home in Brisbane after a long illness. He captained boats such as Kamari, a 40' Pleysier and the 35' Cervantes, another Pleysier during the 80's and 90's. Introducing many to the love of fishing for giant black marlin off Cairns, and for sailfish and blues off the Gold Coast and Moreton Island.
He was a mentor to many of the current Captains who are making a name for themselves around the world. Geoff was at home on the beach fishing for tailor, as he was at Number 1O Reef off Lizard Island or on a hunting safari in Africa. He will be missed by many.
Read a full tribute to Geoff in the July issue of Oceania Sportfishing magazine.
