Over 18,000 people visited our website wavewalk.com in March, up more than 4,000 from March 2009.
That’s almost 30% more paddlers and anglers, who either visited us for the first time, or came back to learn more about our touring and fishing kayaks, and about what our clients were doing with them – whether it’s kayak fishing, paddling, touring, rigging etc.
So far, the only time when more people had visited our website was in July 2009, but the difference is small, and one is bound to remember that July is the peak of the paddling and fishing season in North America – our main market.
Fun fact: About half of our website’s visitors in March visited one part or another of this blog, which is really nice to know, especially if you’re one of those who contribute to this blog regularly 
January and February were also marked by a similar, substantial growth in visits compared to the same period of last year.
Wonderful news Yoav. The Wavewalk tidal wave into the world of kayak fishing continues. Other than new holes and fancy pouches there is no way for the other kayaks to even hope to compete with the W500. But of course as the anglers become wise to the fact that all they really get in anybody elses kayaks are indeed fancy holes and really cool covers they will flock to the Wavewalk line of boats. We all know you are never going to catch more fish because your kayak has spiffy holes in it.
Indeed, paddle boards with glorified holes in them – that’s what SOT yaks are, basically… except for those torture devices called kayak seats and footrests, and some other ridiculous devices such as rudders, pedal drives, and more, bigger holes called storage hatches.
What will future kayak anglers think of us?

Hi Jeff,
Not a tidal wave, yet – more like a growing trickle, still, but there are many anglers out there waiting.

Unlike any other kayak, the W500 has the potential of increasing the number of active kayak anglers. You guys should think about it.
