March 6, 2026, is a day Anthony and the BADCO team will never forget. Watch as years of dreaming, planning, and engineering culminate in one nerve-wracking, historic moment: lifting the custom BADCO 50 gameboat onto the deck of the Damen 175ft mothership.
Seeing the 50 finally secured on deck was an overwhelming mix of anxiety, relief, and triumph. This successful lift cements a massive milestone for the team and officially kicks off our next great adventure. We are embarking on a multi-year global expedition to chase monster fish and experience incredible cultures, countries, and scenery around the world.
A massive thank you to our world-class crew, both on the mothership and the fishing team. We couldn't have pulled this off without you. Special shoutouts to Aaron Croswait, EYS, Neil at Super Yachts, and Salih Saim Kaya from Damen for going above and beyond to support our team and this incredible mission.
