Title: Recommend SUP dealers in mid-Atlantic?
Post by: spirit4earth on April 12, 2018, 01:46:55 PM: Can anyone recommend some great shops in sort of the expanded mid-Atlantic area? I’m looking for a large selection with good customer support. Thanks!

Right at the MD/DE border is probably the most 'lady focused' group and they have been SUP before many of the others thought they missing out on a windfall. (qualifier - I don't get over but every few years - too much traffic.)

I'd say the next two biggest centers are Annapolis and VA Beach. (I don't know anyone in either.)

JimK for sure in NJ, like Bean said.

When I head to the OBX, I might find a place between WNC and there.

https://easternshore.craigslist.org/bfs/d/turn-key-stand-up-paddle/6554139035.html

The listing does not specify the name directly, but the CL locator has them at the exact spot.
