TL;DR

The captain of the fishing boat Sensation, which lost out on over $3 million in earnings when tournament officials disqualified its 619.4-pound blue marlin due to "mutilation," believes they won the tournament fair and square. The owner, captain, and crew of the Sensation have hired Wheatly Law Group to represent them in their efforts to overturn the disqualification. The crew of Sushi won first place in the Big Rock Blue Marlin Tournament, as well as prize money totaling $2,769,438.
