Scott from Deadmans Island Kayak + SUP is a GIG HARBOR WA TREASURE!!!…read more https://www.facebook.com/share/1G9e5QKmJv/?mibextid=wwXIfr https://www.instagram.com/scott_deadmanskayaksup?igsh=MW04dXRmYjFxZWQ1NQ== I have rented paddle boards all over the world and my experience with Scott was nothing short of spectacular! I called him from my layover in Oakland, California and told him I was gonna try to get a paddle in that same evening,if possible, he started describing it and said, "Man you just gotta get here, I'll drop you a pin!. You're not gonna believe what an amazing experience you're gonna have!" We both had goosebumps, he was so pumped and excited, and so was I!!! He was so right, Everything was perfect, and my goosebumps had goosebumps. It was such a beautiful Paddle. A few days later, I had a little more time on my hand, so I gave him a call, once again blew me away. My final night before I was to fly home opened up and once again he went above and beyond. I record my paddles with a GARMIN watch that synchronizes with the RELIVE app to show your video Trail on a satellite map and any pictures and videos you take and geo-stamped along your trail. It also allows you to edit pictures that were taken of you while you're paddling. And you guessed it, Scott took pictures of me out on the water. The guy is just amazing, his passion has no limits and it's infectious. I've never experienced such good service. Not sure if these RELIVE links will be clickable, but the short videos will give you a good sense of the type of experience I had: 1st WA Deadman's Island https://www.relive.com/view/vYvEG2W1PG6 2nd Gig Harbor Sunset https://www.relive.com/view/vPv4ZdRLN36 3rd FOX TANGLEWOOD https://www.relive.com/view/vrqojwBAkK6 Scott's Face book post of my experience: https://www.facebook.com/share/r/1Bet8kW4ri/?mibextid=wwXIfr Scott's Instagram post of my experience: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DInXLXWp5ll/?igsh=MTExdXpuZDMxZDl4bQ==

What I had thought would be a nice, relaxing, and peaceful sailing experience actually turned out…read moreto only fuel my fury. After making the decision to move to another state, I wanted to book something special for myself so I reached out to book a sunset sail. After exchanging a few emails, and me specifically asking about payment, I was given the following response, "Yes we can do Sunday September 4 from 6 to 8 PM. There is no need for a deposit to hold that date. You can cancel at any time without a problem. If it's raining we won't go out. You may pay on the 4th. So as you see, we are pretty relaxed in our operations. When covid started, we tossed the rules out the window and it has proven to be much less stressful for everyone." He then went on to say, "Here are the four methods of payment: Paypal, Venmo, Cash, or Check. The total for a 2 hour cruise is $328.20. Let me know how you want to pay then that's all the information I need from you. Then I will send you a confirmation email that outlines exactly when and where we meet at the marina and other details." Since he said I didn't need to pay until the 4th, I waited until the date got closer. I reached out to him to ensure they got paid so I asked if he'd send me an invoice on paypal and give me the address for the marina so I could put in my GPS. He responded and said that he booked it for someone else because he had not heard from me in 13 days. I'm not sure why I needed to respond if he clearly said I didn't need to pay until the 4th. He mentioned "13 days" as if this was his deciding factor to book someone else. I believed I already had a reservation since he told me the date was available and there was no need to put a deposit to hold the spot. Now, apparently, I'm being punished for not paying.... and he didn't even call or email to let me know someone else wanted that time slot. It just doesn't make sense. He did apologize, but he made no effort to fix this. I told him he needed to get better at communicating with his guests and he agreed. But in any event, I'm the only one who takes a loss for this. So now I'll be leaving Washington without the experience. I told a lot of people about this sail boat cruise and everyone was excited that I was doing something for myself to get a little peace before I left. Now I'll have to go back and tell all those people that I didn't get to go because the "captain" couldn't handle his calendar and apparently the rules that were thrown out, only apply to those who have paid in advance, even though he says you don't have to. Smh. If you're looking for peace, don't use this service. If you like being let down and frustrated, definitely give them a try. What a joke.

5 stars!! Thank you Pacific Parasail for a wonderful activity on a sunny summer weekend! I got a…read morebirthday gift for my SO to go on a 2 people 1,000 ft high parasail trip in the Puget Sound (we did it in Tacoma, but they also have another branch in Kirkland as well) and we couldn't be happier with this gift choice! We were super lucky as the day we went it was super sunny, allowing us to see a super clear view of Mt. Rainier from up and above! :)))) Out from the get go, Pacific Parasail was super responsive to our inquiry and booking. They were very accommodating to our requested day/time (because we called to book before the summer, they even offered the option of coming in early on before the season was supposed to open, since they happened to open early this year, too). When the weather turned bad (e.g. not their fault!), they called well ahead of time that the weather wouldn't be conducive to the activity and offered to reschedule. On the day of the activity, we also received confirmation text on details about time/place to meet and what to wear, too. The staff (both on the boat and at check in) were super polite and nice (despite the fact that we used Groupon deal as well). The trip itself takes about an hour. You get on a jet boat with 6-8 people and go out in the water for about an hour...then take turn to go on parasail for 10-15 min long...super awesome! As a bonus, our The gentlemen on our boat provided clear instruction on what we needed to know/do. We felt super safe (mind you, I have quite some fear of height)..and really enjoyed our unique activity --parasailing for the first time! If you had a chance, definitely check this activity out. Great for a date (with someone you know quite a bit), activities with your family (kids are fine, too!) or just something adventurous/scenic to enjoy the nature/view of PNW! Also, book ahead of time! They seem to get busy, especially in the summer when the weather is nice out there!
