Anyone able to suggest decent online retailers for all bits canoe / kayak please?
Brookbanks
Aye, but their customer service leaves a LOT to be desired. I am a trade customer, and have had to wait 8 months to find out that they have not even placed the order in US for our three boats...
Find a local shop.
Ah, the Evil Empire... 😉
AS Watersports, RoHo, Sue's Canoes and Up & Under always did me well. Desperate Measures are alright as well.
Find a local shop.
They are my local shop 😀
I sympathise though MOAB. They weren't great at confirming delivery times for my last boat, but it just gave me an excuse to go a drool at the new Escape Route shop in the same building.
If perth is your local shop, head to Dave Rossiter at Stirling Canoes then...
