Well the season is off to a great start and we have been very busy around the shop. Here are some updates and general shop news.
The shop is now open Mon-Sat 10:00-6:00 and Sunday 11:00-5:00. We will expand hours further by the end of June.
Kayak News: Our Big Demo is June 19th from 10:00-3:00pm at Hathaway's Pond in Hyannis. Manufacturer's reps will be on hand, and we will have over 60 different boats on the water. We will also have a kayak fishing clinic Friday June 18th @ 5:00pm. Please call ahead on the fishing clinic. Kayak lessons are in full swing! If you are interested just give us a call. Taking a lesson can be a great jump start into the sport. A lesson can also provide the knowledge to safely paddle in more diverse environments. We can provide a flexible schedule so if you don't see the class you want on the day you want just ask, we may be able to accommodate. As a bonus all lesson participants get a coupon for $45 off the purchase of a boat. So if you're in the market anyway, it really makes since. We have LOTS of new kayak models in stock...glass sea kayaks, sailing kayaks, electric kayaks, pedal kayaks, standup kayaks and boards, and even entry level boats starting @ $269. Come check it out!
Snorkeling/Diving News: Don't forget we are holding weekly beach dives starting June 17th. The dives will run every Thursday @ 5:30pm throughout the season. Please call ahead if you plan on coming. The dives are casual, and all certified divers are welcome. Learn to dive classes are currently being held. Please call for info or to sign up. In addition to stocking the premier product lines in diving from Atomic, SCUBAPRO, and Mares, we are adding SubGear to the mix. We are excited about it and think our customers will be too.
Cycling News: No news is good news... everything has been running great! Look for a shop group ride one day per week starting mid season. Great way to enjoy the camaraderie of others or get coached on basic cycling and group riding techniques.
Staff: We welcomed back Kelly Denham and Brendan Russo to the shop a few weeks ago. Brendan was on the fishing team at Virginia Tech and we welcome his knowledge in the kayak fishing area. Kelly has been working on her kayak guide rating and has been cycling to cross train for competitive running. Elaine Toomey is over from Ireland for the summer. She is a level 2 ICU Sea kayak Instructor and will be leading kayak tours and teaching lessons as well as spending time in the shop. Larry Bessinger our main kayak guide is spending lots of time on his Fuji Newest road bike, when he is not in his Current Designs Willow kayak that is. Matt Lounsbury is an avid scuba diver and will be seen around the shop more as the summer progresses. Jeffrey Gilman is getting ready for the Wilderness 101 hundred mile mountain bike race next month. Crazy! The list goes on...Bob Torrey, Chris Olsen, Chris Ranney, Mike Reardon... we have been fortunate to have a great team here at Sea Sports. Come by and say hello!
Thank you to our customers from the Sea Sports Crew.
