ADELANTO, CALIF., Oct. 1, 2007 – Cabo Yachts is proud to announce eight-year-old Ken Nakamura of Rye, NY as the winner of the 2007 Cabo Kids Summer Tournament.
Fishing aboard a Cabo 35 Flybridge, Ken took home the grand prize of $2,500, plus a rod and reel. The prize was presented to Ken during the Norwalk Boat Show by Cabo Yachts President Austin Rothbard, and Vice President of Sales and Marketing Jim Renfrow.
Now in its fifth year, the Cabo Kids Summer Tournament promotes family participation in the great adventures of sportfishing. In addition to the grand prize, first and second prizes were awarded within three different age categories.

Ten-year-old Andy won $500 plus a rod and reel after a summer of fishing aboard a Cabo 40 Express. The second place rod and reel was awarded to 13- year-old Brandon Krumins of Winter Park, FL, fishing aboard a Cabo 45 Express.
