What an amazing Mother's Day treat I had today with my 10 year old son at Sea Kayak Connecticut!…read moreHaving been on other SUP adventures while traveling, I was thrilled to find out that this was available locally and even more excited to introduce it to my son. The website is super informative and gives so many helpful details to plan your adventure whether you are going on the SUP or kayaks but what's more impressive is when you arrive, you are greeted by a super friendly staff and the owner David, is super knowledgeable about what's appropriate for your experience level and then guides you on how to get the most enjoyment out of the time on the water. The equipment was all either brand new or kept in like new condition which is definitely a huge bonus since I have rented boards at other places that were not kept in condition like these. There is a convenient and super clean locker room and bathroom available to get changed in and then lock up your valuables just steps away from the dock where you launch. You can tell that a lot of thought has been put into making every detail of your entire experience fluid and flawless. Since this was my son's first time, the staff helped tether his board to mine which made him and I much more comfortable. After we launched we had an incredible couple of hours enjoying the beautiful weather and such a special day together. I can't thank you enough David and your wonderful staff for making this a very special memory for my son and I! My son already asked when we will go again. After seeing another guest on the 'Step SUP today, I think it would be super fun to try that out and read that Sea Kayak offers motorized SUP as well... I mean, c'mon how cool is that!! I think it goes without saying but I will anyway... I highly recommend Sea Kayak Connecticut, I know we will definitely be back for more!!

The staff did the best they could under the circumstances making sure that we were adequately prepared to use the equipment; but if they were better trained, it would go a long way towards making for a safer and more enjoyable experience. I will take my business elsewhere next time, perhaps you should too.

I do not keep my boat at Safe Harbor Marina so I can't speak to the quality of their facility, but…read moreI cannot recommend them for mechanical work. I keep my boat at a neighboring marina and reached out for help with my boat's engine. Over the course of a couple months one of their technicians tried several times to solve my problem, and worse told me several times that he had fixed it when the engine clearly was not running right. After seeking another opinion, another mechanic was able to diagnose my problem within an hour and then replace the broken part within an hour as well, and now my boat runs like new. If I hadn't used Safe Harbor for this issue I likely would have saved signficant time and money.

First, boat means Break Out Another Thousand -- vehicles in salt water require maintenance and work. Second, if you are nice good things happen. The staff from top to bottom are really nice people trying to do he best they can. My boat is not the poster child of perfection, but, staff have always treated me fairly and gotten the job done. Yes, some bills set high, but others set low -- it all averages out. Finally, all work, at least for me, has been first rate. To me THAT is what is important. If you want to save $$ do it yourself. If you want to get it one right, open the wallet!

SSC is such a great place if you plan to sail on LI Sound or beyond. It offers sailing classes out…read moreof Norwalk. Particularly, the sessions taught by Martin, the owner, were fantastic with both sailing basics and hands-on tips. The classes were intense at times but made you a better sailer. SSC has a variety of sail boats (from daysail to 40 footer) you can have access to after enrolling one of their membership plans which are quite reasonable in my opinion as opposed to owning a boat. Additionally, there are other sailing opportunities (I.e. racing etc) to hone in your skills and enjoy what LI sound has to offer. It is a local family owned business with friendly team. The students and members I met at SSC are easy going and great to hang out with.

IF I COULD LEAVE ZERO STARS I WOULD…read more I am a Marine Corps Veteran with a REGISTERED Service K-9. I was refused service without consideration and berated by who I am assuming was the owner or manager in front of other patrons and the staff. Let start from the beginning. Norwalk Sailing School lies within a park that charges for parking for non Norwalk residents (which was not disclosed on there website). This park also prohibits pets. So, after paying to get into the park and verifying my K-9's credentials we were in. We then arrived at Norwalk Sailing School. I left my K-9 in the truck while we payed and filled out paperwork. This was to avoid any crowds and children that my be over curious of the K-9. After the paperwork was done the young man told me it would be about 30 min. Which I was fine with because we didn't have a reservation but were still getting the boat we wanted. So we returned to the truck to get our things and my K-9. We then proceeded to walk around the sailing school and to watch the other people and boats. After about 20 mins we then walked back into the staging area to get ready. As soon as we got there an older, short, tan gentleman who I am assuming is the owner or manager began berating me without warrant or instigation. "THAT DOG CANT BE HERE." "MY INSURANCE DOESN'T COVER DOGS/PROPERTY." "WHAT SERVICE COULD A DOG PROVIDE ON A BOAT?" "I DONT WANT IT TO DAMAGE MY PROPERTY." "IT WONT BE COMFORTABLE ON A BOAT ANYWAYS." "YOUR JUST TRYING TO BE SLIPPERY." "I DON'T CARE IF ITS A SERVICE ANIMAL, GET IT OUT OF HERE." "GET OUT OF HERE." So we went to LONGSHORE SAILING SCHOOL instead. There the staff was very considerate, and helpful. And gave me or my K-9 any problems. Oh yeah and it ended up being cheaper also. I highly recommend LONGSHORE SAILING SCHOOL.
