THE 2013 CHASE
Done Deal Does It Again
After capturing the Gulf Coast Triple Crown in 2012, Done Deal returned in 2013 with one goal: defend the crown.
The 56′ Viking from Houma, Louisiana, battled through all five qualifying events before arriving at the final event with the championship still within reach. When the final points were tallied, Done Deal had done something only a championship team could do — win it again.
The victory made Done Deal the first team in Gulf Coast Triple Crown history to capture the championship in consecutive seasons.

During the Blue Marlin Grand Championship, Done Deal added another unforgettable chapter to its season.
The team landed a 445.2-pound Blue Marlin, along with a 76.6-pound Yellowfin Tuna. While those fish did not produce qualifying points for the Triple Crown standings, Done Deal’s participation in the final event provided the bonus points needed to secure the championship.

“This really means a lot to me and my team – and we’ll definitely be back again next year to defend our title against this very top-notch competition.”
