GoPro - OnlineWakeboards.com

You have probably seen pictures and videos taken with a GoPro Camera all over the internet recently, but how much do you know about GoPro? Well, GoPro is an American corporation that makes the world's most versatile cameras. They develop, produce and market high-definition cameras for personal use. Usually used to photograph and video extreme action sports such as surfing, skateboarding, snowboarding, mountain climbing, and any other activity that is difficult to photograph, GoPro Cameras capture still photos as well as HD videos using a wide-angle lens.

Nicholas Woodman, founder and CEO of GoPro, Inc., decided to create an innovative camera to capture adventures after a surfing trip he took in Australia in  2002. After not being able to take shots of his surfing, he sought to construct a camera that could take professional quality photographs at an affordable price (that is where the name GoPro derived from). Initially raising money to start his company, Woodman sold bead and shell belts out of his VW van for less than $20 each. This inspired the fashionable straps that attach to the cameras.

Featuring numerous style cameras at varying prices, GoPro offers something for everyone. You can purchase your GoPro Camera at OnlineWakeboards.com or visit our Ships’ Store located at Lighthouse Harbor Marina on Lake Wallenpaupack, PA.

Select the Best Boat Dealer

Here are a couple tips to follow to help you choose the best boat dealer:

Are you greeted by the staff? The first five minutes of entering a store are the most telling. If someone does not come out to greet you and offer assistance, service will probably not improve in the future.

Did you do your research? You can find out a lot of information by taking a few minutes to investigate a business’s reputation online. Check out reviews from other customers.

Is the property clean and kept up? If the dealership does not take pride in, and care for their own property, do not be surprised if they treat your property the same way.

Are your phone calls and emails returned? No one likes to wait around for a return call. It may not be right away, but your business should be important enough to the dealer for you to count on reliable communication.

Do they hold any Dealership Industry Certifications? Intended to improve the sales and service experience of customer, the National Marine Manufacturers Association (NMMA) offers the Marine Five Star Dealer Certification program. Dealers spend a lot of time and money to invest in this program and NMMA’s research shows that they provide a superior level of service than those who do not hold a certification.

National Lighthouse Day - LighthouseHarbor.com

Lighthouse Harbor Marina is proud to be celebrating National Lighthouse Day today, August 7th. It was on this day in 1789, that Congress approved an Act for the establishment and support of lighthouse, beacons, buoys and public piers.

Origin of National Lighthouse Day...

Senator John H. Chafee (Rhode Island) sponsored a joint resolution that was introduced to Congress on April 28, 1988 designating the day of August 7, 1989 as “National Lighthouse Day.” The summary of the resolution stated, “Designates August 7, 1989, as National Lighthouse Day and calls for lighthouse grounds, where feasible, to be open to the public.” The resolution passed the Senate on July 26, 1988 and the House (sponsored by Representative William J. Hughes, New Jersey) on October 21, 1988. President Ronald Reagan signed the Bill into public law (No. 100-622) on November 5, 1988.
