Things were so much easier when I could shut my job off at 5 o'clock and just go fishing. But the idea of getting this kayak rental business up and running could mean a lot to a lot of people. Not just me. So, it's totally worth a shot.
Mike and I won't be partners going forward. Thankfully though, we will remain friends. His confidence in me is partly the reason I wanted to give this thing a go in the first place. However, at the new place, there is no room for both of our boats and I won't need the financial help that I would have needed at the first location.
Todd Foucher (pronounced FOO SHAY) owner of Roundabout Watercraft is taking me under his wing and helping me by allowing me to stay at his place until I'm up and and running. We may even be sharing a place where we can both run a business together.
I will be inviting everyone to come by and check the place out soon. Patrons will get the first heads up. Thank you so much for your continuing support! Your contributions will continue to go towards the opening of the rental business.

Keep up the great work, Marty! Building a business from scratch is all about pivots and failing forward. Let us know how we can help you in any way!

I used to see that little red kayak going down the road in the back of a green truck every so often . Then i started to see the green truck at a park just on the south side of the skyway. I used to think to myself , man how lucky this guy was to be on the water every day. Then just recently i stumbled upon that same little red kayak on you tube . Marty there is no doubt that you are trully living the dream.

Great analogy - building your business yourself, just like fitting out your kayaks and restoring your boat. There's nothing like a grass-roots origin and growing your business organically. Looking forward to patronizing your new business venture.

You got this...adult stuff is kinda a strain on our more playful nature, but you have obviously got a vision and that matched with your intense creative skills and work ethic will go a long way. Your polite way of conducting yourself is also gonna be a key ingredient, I'm excited for you and encouraged to see you going for it!

Marty, just been watching zoffinger RU-vid channel a short while and really enjoy it. I moved to FL from N.E. four years ago and am in a rut at work and life. Your sincerity, testicular fortitude and gumption are an inspiration. I took a 23' power boat round trip from Danversport, MA to Key West via the ICW up the west coast across the Okeechobee waterway some thirty years ago . I called the small boat, "Teal Seal" home for six months.

Amazing how life works. With all my military experience, years of education both graduate school and undergraduate school, I'm still trying to figure it out. I have learned one thing though, along the way. Stay positive, and hang around people that are positive as well (your buddies Richie, and Todd.) Good luck Marty, the new place looks so much better to kayak than your last place. I can now see why your so excited. See you hopefully soon at your new place.

I'm excited for you, Marty! Congrats on the new place. This may be a new beginning for you, but you have the benefit of the experience of trying to make the old place work. I'm sure you've got a much clearer vision of what needs to be done. Good luck to you. This is definitely one of my favorite RU-vid channels! God Bless!

Sorry to hear you've had to shift gears and relocate but things happen for a reason. Looking forward to visiting you one day and getting to see your new home. Fellow Long Islander here looking to get off this crowded Island soon ...and Fla is where I'm headed.

Keep at it Marty! Its not like I'm saying anything you don't already know, but sometimes the river forks in a direction we didn't see coming but leads to a place better than we imagined. Documenting the trials of starting your business is just as interesting as the recreational ones. As long as you keep faith in yourself, things will always keep getting better. Its a great story to tell.

Marty, Glad to you keep on keeping on, I'm sure you will succeed. Your video's (especially the Big Boat) got me thinking. I fell on hard times over the last 3 years and have lost everything. But I did decide to head East and restart my life but I found out going back to the family is hard. I left for the Left Coast again but circumstances beyond my control has me thinking going back East to live out the rest of my days on the water. You have been an inspiration, keep up with the videos (all types) love the puppies show them more!

Hi, Marty 👍🏻👊🏻 I’m glad to see back out on the water in your kayak. I have been wondering what you’ve been up too lately, life is not all business and stressing out you need to have more time on the water doing what you love best. I miss seeing you in your kayak and going to places hoping to catch an awesome fish, and doing adventures on your boat. I wish you well in your business.

Sorry to hear you had to move, Marty. On the other hand, we need more of your kayak fishing adventures to keep the fires burning. Those in themselves are advertisements without being "advertisements". You might want to add an address/phone for us to make contact or to simply arrive in case we want to do business with you. Good luck.

Marty, Ive been watching your channel for a while now. I cant even remember the earliest video of yours I watched. All of the customization to this yak and definitely pre-hobie. Anywho, I think the pinnacle of achievements I will have witnessed you accomplish is when you land a bud light sponsorship. I am attracting it for you Marty. "Adventures with Marty, sponsored by Pelican and Bud Light, Drink Responsibly". 🤣🤣🤣 wish you the best always, and i cant wait to see the Bud Light sponsorship video :)
