Surf Coast Marine Continues Support as Major Prize Sponsor for the 31st Flathead Classic

The Gold Coast Sportfishing Club is excited to announce Surf Coast Marine as the Major Prize Sponsor for the 31st Annual Gold Coast Flathead Classic — as we cruise into a new era of one of Australia’s most iconic catch-and-release tournaments.

Celebrating 31 years of competition, community, and coastal adventure, this year’s Classic is set to deliver awesome prizes, epic action, and an electric atmosphere both on and off the water. With over $500,000 in prizes, including major boat giveaways and premium sponsor merchandise, the 2025 event will again attract hundreds of teams from across the country.

Gold Coast-based Surf Coast Marine is a natural fit for the Flathead Classic, offering anglers expert service and top-tier boating solutions. As the region’s exclusive Quintrex dealer, Surf Coast Marine is known for its range of Suzuki-powered boats, a full-service workshop backed by factory-trained technicians, and flexible trade-in and finance options through their in-house team.

“We’re proud to be back as the Major Prize Sponsor for this iconic event,” said Simon Wyatt, Sales and Marketing at Surf Coast Marine. “The Flathead Classic brings together everything we love about boating and fishing — and we’re thrilled to support it as it enters a fresh new chapter.”

In 2025, Surf Coast Marine-sponsored teams, Flat Spinning and local personality Paul Burt will be competing, showcasing not only their gear but their passion and dedication to the sport. Their involvement highlights a growing connection between local marine businesses and the wider fishing community.

As the Flathead Classic enters this exciting new era, the continued support of major partners like Surf Coast Marine ensures the tradition only gets stronger.
