Jeff probably knew I was gonna do this, but here goes -
After several trips renting from them, I would not recommend Hawaiian
Island Surf & Sport unless you're desperate. I had one bad experience
with the place that soured me on them about a month ago. Go to Second
Wind, Hi-Tech, Maui Windsurf Company, whatever, just don't go to HISS.
If you want details, I'll post them, but I was treated *very* poorly
there.
Otoh, I had a *very good* experience with Simmer in Paia. Ask for Pieter
or Keith. It's a new rental operation, with brand-new Simmer Onshores,
carbon booms, Maui North Shore boards, and more and better quality
equipment than you get at HISS or any of the other places for virtually
the same price. If interested about Simmer in the meantime, check
deja-news under edscott@nospam.best.com-DeleteThis, and you can see what I wrote in
rec.windsurfing about it.
Thanks.
-Ed
