It does seem like things are calm here at The GPS Store after hurricane Dorian left its mark. Deliveries have sorted themselves out and products are arriving now to support our sales at the Annapolis Sail Boat Show running Oct 10 thru 14. If you are in the area and looking for marine electronics it is a great time to buy with huge discounts supported by the manufacturers. Manufacture Restricted Prices or MRP are waved for purchases made at the show, which makes it a great time to buy. We will be there in Tent B40, so come by and check us out. Brian, Scott and Philip will be on duty. We can also be seen on Facebook and Twitter.
We dodged another one
Hurricane Dorian blew by us just off the coast so we avoided a lot of damage and only received the rain which was enough to flood some of our main roads as well as back roads. No deaths here so all is good today. Well Scott and Brian are gearing us for the Annapolis Sail Boat Show in early October so that usually ends our one slower period of the year because once that it over it will be Christmas Season starting with Black Friday sales. Great to stay busy all year long these days. When I started we weren’t the presence in the marine industry we are now so we would have about a month of slow sales, not so anymore though. Well I will be back to you next week but until then check us out on Facebook and Twitter.
August is gone and Hurricane Season is on
True it is august will end on Saturday and Sunday Hurricane Dorian should be hitting Florida. This is the real end to summer when kids are on their way back to school. My Granddaughter was back on Monday and her brother my Grandson is back this coming Tuesday. Dorian on the other hand may be a Cat 3 when it hits shore and this is enough to do real damage so we are keeping our fingers crossed that everyone in Florida and north will be OK. Scott and Brian are in their final stages of preparation for the Annapolis Sailboat Show Oct 10-14. Our last show for 2019, and then Christmas and our 2020 Boat Show season. It is great to get outside our office and see our customers face to face. I know it tires our crew but they are happy to do it for our customers. Well off until next week, and I will be back then. Please follow us on Facebook and Twitter.

July Update
Good Morning Everyone, July has come and almost gone for 2019. For those of you in the north you still have time to buy new marine electronics and get use out of them before winterizing your boat, and we still have some great prices to offer you and expert advise to help you with what you need, and I promise we will not try and oversell you. For those of you who are hunters it is time to think about your handheld GPS, you want to make sure you know it is working and you know how to use it when you take off into the woods. Keep us in mind for your marine and GPS needs we can help. I will be back with you later. Once again check us out on Facebook and Twitter.
Almost the 4th
With only a little over a week to go before the 4th of July one of the busiest travel weeks of the year, take a minute to review your plan and devices before hitting the road. Make sure the mapping on your auto GPS is up to date and firmware is u[p to date on any other device dependent on a GPS location, like an Approach, or a handheld GPS. No reason to start a trip and suffer frustration from a GPS that is not working correctly. If you find out one or all are not working correctly and need to be replaced, give us a call to see how we can help. A tough weekend for me this past one as I celebrated another birthday # 70 and there is no going back. Until next week stay tuned and check us out on Facebook and Twitter.

Today starts summer for most of the people in the north but our weather here in Ocean Isle Beach has been summer like for the past month at least. Well if you are looking to get outdoor for the summertime now is the time to look at our store. We literally have something for everyone. Golf season is going strong and the Approach from Garmin is a great tool for all skill levels. Hiking of course we have all of the current Garmin handhelds.
