New Additions Coming Soon

It is that time of the year where I start reviewing and updating my business plan in preparation for 2009. Seems a little early doesn’t it? Reason is, it all revolves around the Outdoor Retailer Expo, which takes place in Salt Lake City Utah every August. That is where manufacturers showcase and launch new products and start taking preseason orders.

Last year, we were quick to bring to you the latest news in new products by Heritage, Native, NuCanoe and a few other brands. I got an early preview of what you can expect to see from Native and Heritage but was sworn to secrecy until after the show. Stay tuned!

I am particularly excited this year because I am now more than ever in tune with what is out there, what my customers want and setting the stage for our overdue retail front. And, as I have stated before, I am working to expand out watercraft line as well. In an effort to offer a more diverse product offering, I am looking for new and innovative boats instead of your standard run of the mill kayak. We are in the process of setting up shop to sell Gheenoe and KL Industries boats and also plan to expand our Flatstalker inventory. We’ll provide more details on this soon.

There is one product we picked up a few weeks ago and I am honored to be the first dealer in Central Texas to offer it…the Freedom Hawk Kayak. I haven’t had a chance to demo the boat myself but plan to play with it a bit at the OR Expo. I’ll be sure to post my report here as I am very excited about this product. I have learned that one my customer’s number one priority in buying a boat is stability. This boat seems to take care of that in more ways than one. We currently have a couple in stock and will have one at our demo day in September so be sure to check back for dates. Here is a link to a video.

Well, keeping it short…updates from the OR Expo coming soon.

Cheers,
Roland "Bones" Jimenez
