Electronics manufacturer Raymarine has signed an exclusive sponsorship with Bluewater Movements Inc., to be the electronics sponsor for the Pompano Beach Saltwater Circuit Summer Series in 2025 and 2026. The agreement is an extension of Raymarine’s multi-year sponsorship of Bluewater Movements’ Sailfish Series.

The Pompano Beach Saltwater Circuit is a tournament series that takes place annually from May to August. Competitors fish for mahi-mahi, wahoo, kingfish, tuna and cobia at three events. The first one is the Saltwater Shootout in May, followed by the Saltwater Slam in June and the Saltwater Showdown in August. The teams compete for a $500,000 purse.

“Based on the success and impact with Raymarine’s sponsorship of the Sailfish Series, adding our commitment to the Saltwater Circuit Summer Series was an easy decision,” Raymarine vice president Jamie Dery said in a statement. “Beyond the promotional value these events provide, we also have the opportunity to build relationships with some of the world’s best sportfishing captains and crews, which is a key ingredient to the future success of Raymarine.”

Bluewater Movements is a sports marketing company based in South Florida and has spent the last 27 years producing fishing tournaments.
