The Bad Company fleet is well-known for its modern sports fishing missions and can currently be found on a world tour. In supporting sports fishing, the owner is involved in several marine conservation projects in remote locations across the planet such as those initiated by the Coastal Conservation Association of California.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/271757/image/large-6e791c8060b6860c0a25783a4d200c44.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/271757"><a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/11950" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Bad Company Support53.25m (174'8&quot;)Damen Yachting2023">Bad Company Support</a> features a huge 15-tonne deck crane and is fully IMO Tier III compliant to reduce harmful emissions by 70 percent for full-range operations. Her two main engines can deliver speeds of up to 19 knots.Once delivered, she will tour the Mediterranean for a shakedown trip, and then leave Med and move into the Atlantic Ocean in its first year, followed by next year in the Indian Ocean and Pacific. The new mothership will be equipped with a 43-foot Release Game boat and a 32-foot Blackfin – a boat which carries significant sentiment for the Owner. Recently repurchased and refurbished for this adventure, the Blackfin was the owner’s first Game fishing boat purchased more than 30 years ago.
