I believe you had stated earlier that they didn't let you demo it because it was sold already, correct?

I heard on Friday that Aquan in San Carlos is no longer in business.  Anyone able to confirm that?

New to forum...Headwaters Kayak trip

Recently, after months of research and finally coming to some conclusions I headed down to HEADWATERS KAYAK in Lodi...I was 100% prepared with a million questions and ready to annoy anybody I ran into...

I was met by Dan and Bam in the shop and suddenly felt a sense of hospitality and genuine willingness to get me going in the right direction...needless to say I drove home fully rigged and ready to roll...professionalism, customer service, passion, and friendliness are just a few words I can say about the shop...lifetime customer and supporter...thanks Dan

I visited this location and it is no longer Aquan. Aquan has been bought out or "taken over" by California Canoe and Kayak. I arrived there at closing time, 5:56 and was disappointed that the door was locked. I was about to leave and I seen someone rush to the door and opened it. A gentlemen told me that he prematurely closed the store and kindly let me in. I told him I was not going to buy anything but had a few questions on kayaks. He had no problem and walked me around the store. Let me sit inside a Hobie and told/showed me a few different kayaks. He informed me that all of the current stock was from Aquan and did not have any regular California Canoe and Kayak merchandise. He did inform me as soon as he would sell any of the stuff he had in stock, they would restock it with their own.
I believe he mentioned there was going to be a grand opening sale in January.
Hope this helps!

Does any body have a recommendation for a shop that accepts trade-ins towards a new kayak?

Call Dan at Headwaters Kayak in Lodi.  I believe they have taken trades in the past.

Do you know if they are open now during COVID19 by chance?
