Many Chester County families take to the water in the summer months as our area has many fantastic locations for recreation water sports – including the Brandywine River and Marsh Creek State Park.  Here are a few tips to help make the most of your kayak outing;
  • Wear sneakers or footwear that you don’t mind getting wet. Chances are, you’ll spend some time in the water, and you don’t know what’s on the bottom.
  • Wear a bathing suit. You are likely to get wet. 
  • Leave valuables behind. If you take a small amount of cash and a camera, make sure they’re in waterproof pouches.
  • Bring a water bottle, some sunscreen and a bug repellent. 
  • Rinse off your equipment before storing and allow to drip dry. 
  • Create a space or location in your home to keep you kayak up and out of the way during the off season.

One of the challenges  kayak owners face is temporary or off-season storage.  Sure, they are light and easy to transport, but where do you keep them during other months of the year? As noted in the tips above, the key is being able to stow them so that it not taking up valuable space – either in a shed or your garage.

At Garage Sense, we have worked with many Kayak owners to figure out a storage solution that works for them, while thinking of creative ways to create other storage options for their accompanying gear and things. For the Kayak, our customers found that the Kayak Rack fits the bill!   With this rack, you have the ability to get your boat off of the ground and onto the wall. Strong and durable, you can even stack two boats with paddles on one rack.

We have also found the Kayak Rack to be a perfect solution for storing car carriers, or anything that is long and needs to be up and out of the way!
