Despite the cold the MASSIVE CLEAROUT SALE continues!


Having to pull the plug on Harbour Sports Limited was a painful experience and yet the support from so many with the MASSIVE CLEAROUT SALE has been fantastic. As you will know most of the lovely stock is being sold at HALF THE RETAIL price. Whilst most people were aware of the watersports kit perhaps not so many will know that we also have loads and loads of cold weather kit including snow jackets, gloves, moon boots and lots of other keep warm stuff.

Curious isn't it that this cool kit keeps you warm! But having said that these boots have also been seen as part of the bikini beach world! We have stacks of 'moon boots' which make ideal Christmas presents and all at half price. Did Santa know about this stuff when he dropped in? Perhaps not, but he is on the mailing list and so we can expect that huge sled outside the door over the weekend.

Gosh, it is cold today and perhaps we should stick a couple of our own sleds outside the door. They are ideal for Dartmoor snowy days..................

How good is that!

MORE MASSIVE SALE STOCK UNPACKED



The response to the MASSIVE CLEAR OUT SALE continues to be....well, MASSIVE!

The stock from all three shops has ended up back in sunny Paignton and is being unpacked on a daily basis. The Paignton shop is open every day from 11.30 to 5.30 (Monday to Friday), 0930 - 5.30 on Saturday and 10.00 to 4pm pm Sunday.

In order to help with quantitative easing (not really) this is a CASH ONLY sale. We keep banging on about Santa shopping here (ho ho ho) and many people have done most of their Christmas shopping already. Most of the stock is being sold at 50% off the original retail price. The only exceptions are surfboards and skateboards which sell at 30% off the original retail price. All the kayaks have been sold!

The Transit with the 8 x 4 MASSIVE CLEAROUT SALE sign on the roof is, as I write, parked outside South Devon College on Long Road and is attracting attention!

Harbour Sports - the end of an era....


This was the official press release this week that told the world Harbour Sports had fallen over. It’s all very sad and a reflection, perhaps, of the new order of things. There is more to say, but now is not the time.

frank

“Press Information

20.00hrs 11th Sept 2012

For immediate release

The directors of Harbour Sports Ltd announce that the company ceased trading on Monday 10th September 2012 . A statement was issued as follows.

We very much regret that a combination of adverse factors has led to this outcome. We would like to thank our customers over the 35 years it has taken to build up this local family business, and particularly our staff for all their support and hard work. Our shops in Exeter and the Barbican, Plymouth have closed permanently. Our base at Paignton Harbour will re-open with some changes in the future and details of this will be released later.

Harbour Sports was founded in the 1970s by Julian Smith and Frank Sobey, together with their wives Sue and Lyndy. As well as retailing watersports clothing and equipment it ran a popular windsurfing school for 20 years and was well known in the 1980s for speedboat trips and aquasausage rides in Torbay . These were featured in a number of national TV programmes.

Expansion saw surfing, bodyboarding and skateboarding included after the opening of the Barbican branch. Yacht charter based in Dartmouth and the arrival of the Exeter shop followed in the 1990s. Lifestyle clothing and accessories were then included in the product range, with many major brands in stock.”

The Old Sea Dog Goes Kayaking



It’s a bit like rubbing salt in the wound today. After a summer that left us all soggy, going rusty and warping up pops a gloriously sunny day. Of course when you think about it the past five summers have been too dismally soggy which when you are a child of the sun tends to leave the psyche in tatters.

But today is wall to wall sunshine and ideal for bobbing about on a kayak to which Harbour Sports quickly respond by offering a juicy 30% discount for aspirant kayakers. But that isn’t enough and so if you really want to walk the walk then pick up a pair of trendy shorts and stylish flip-flops at a whopping 50% off!

The thing is that too often we find reasons for not going out to play and on a day like today you really need the zing factor. Or in the case of one Harbour Sports kayaker, the Ziggy factor!

Tempted? Of course you are. Come on, live the life……..
