Captain Jerry and the rest of the crew at Captain Kayak were EXCELLENT in every way. From the time I walked in, Cpt. Jerry took a good chunk of time answering my questions and going over the kayak I was interested in. I came in already educated about what I was purchasing and Cpt. Jerry left me with even more knowledge about the kayak as well as going over transportation/rack options. My girlfriend and I left knowing we would be back, and put a deposit down the next day. A week later we came to pick it up, and even with a busy store, the entire staff was amazing in helping us place racks on the car, teaching us how to load and unload the kayak properly as well as how to secure it to the racks the right way. Before we officially purchase our Hobie, Cpt. Jerry brought us to the back where he had our kayak on stands and went over every feature of the kayak, the warranty, and what we would need to know as new paddlers. They are an official Hobie dealer as well and stock all the necessary parts and accessories for Hobie Kayaks. I highly recommend this store to anyone shopping for a kayak, the whole experience was effortless and I learned much more than I expected walking through the door. The entire staff was extremely, helpful, accommodating and friendly.

Purchased my Hobie outback 12 from Captain Kayak. Actually placed my order at a local fishing show. Within one week I had my yak and the captain kayak staff outfitted it with every option I requested. I was even giving a walk through when I picked it up. The great thing about buying a Fishing kayak at Captain kayak is that the staff and owners have experience kayak fishing so they know what works and what doesnt. After the sale I have come back to fine tune my yak and once again the staff was awesomely quick and efficient. The support level is great and you cant get that from a website. They also offer some great tackle specifically designed to make the best of fishing from the yak. Im definitely a satisfied customer and always recommend this shop to anyone whos looking for a kayak.

Ive been kayak fishing for only a few years. In that time Ive done a lot of research on the web, as well as in person at kayak shops. Captain Kayak is probably the best in the area, if not the region. Reading discussion boards for years, I have only seen positive reviews of the busness, and especially the staff. Jerry Collins is the owner. He is a long time captain and resident of the area. He is super nice and extremely helpful, even if youre not buying anything from him. He has excellent, qualified guides working for him at his kayak fishing site in East Quogue. His shop is in Sayville and is full of the best fishing kayaks and accessories. If youre thinking of purchasing a kayak, scull or accessories, you should check out his shop.

Captain Jerry knows more about Kayaks than any person I have ever met. He also knows a boatload of stuff about fishing. I purchased my Pro Angler here and have always been treated professionally and courteously by the entire staff. If you are thinkiing about buying a kayak...or even renting one for a few hours to decide if it is for you...this is the place to go and Jerry is the guy to see. (PS - Extra props to this place for organizing the Kayak Fishing Tournament in Jamaicia Bay each year and for running it as a charity for the Wounded Warrior Organization.)

The review is this is an excellent shop with extremely knowledgeable staff and one of the best, if not the best, Hobie dealers that I have purchased several kayaks and accessories from and will continue to do. Not to mention they host one of the largest and best Kayak fishing tourneys in the United States of America. The Jamaica Bay Classic. So, overall rating, 5 stars.

After buying a kayak, we brought our son a gift card, these expire! Not very good , you just keep the money. The gentleman that helped me had to go in the back to have all my questions answered. Gentleman next to went through the same thing, ask questions, and the girl went in the back to get the answer.
