Demofest is back!!

On Saturday May 10th we’ll be hosting Demofest at the beach at Lake Ahquabi State Park from 9 am to 1 pm. Although we’ve been unable to get manufacturers to agree to attend with demo boats, we’ll still have a good selection of models for everyone to try out. It’s free to come to the beach, ask questions, and watch but if you want to get on the water to test paddle a canoe, kayak, or SUP, there will be a $15.00 participation fee. 

The following boats are expected to be at the lake for Demofest. If you don’t see a model you’d like to test paddle, please give us a call to see if we have it in stock. If it’s used or discounted, we can bring it to the beach and include it as a Demofest boat. If it is a new boat, you can pay our regular test paddling fee of $50 per boat and we will make it available during the event for you to test paddle 

 

Here is the list of boats we expect to have on the beach.
