What our customers are saying
I would like to personally recognize Melissa Higgins for her excellent customer service. I had a Hobie Mirage drive that was making an awful squeaking noise. I originally went to REI with no success. I then went back to the Hobie website and saw that Fays was an authorized warranty service center. I emailed and Melissa responded. She asked me to submit a video of my issue. She responded with the possibility of an easy fix. I tried it and it worked! Troubleshooting over email saved me time and money. Thank you Melissa for going the extra mile and genuinely caring about the customer.
Melissa is the best. It is no surprise that I see a lot of positive comments about her great customer service. She went way above and beyond to get a Hobie Kayak delivered to me on a down day for the store. Took an incredible amount of time to explain all the details and make sure I was completely satisfied with the purchase. Thank you so much for a great experience.
Hi Bill, attached are two pictures of sailing the Rocket on Winnisquam. Still working on my skills and figuring out how to launch, but the boat has been fun and we’ve had some good sails. My grandsons are impressed with the speed.
