I’ve always planned my water activities around the weather. I don’t like being uncomfortable in a situation that should be fun and enjoyable. There are also times when a sudden storm comes out of nowhere, high winds, cold rain, and nasty seas. There is so many variables that can make your time on the water depressing. That is why Simms has taken pride in making sure every outdoors-man is ready for any situation. From Bibs, to Jackets, and Pants, Simms Pro-dry system is fully waterproof and windproof that will keep you comfortable all day long.spacer

The Fisherman’s Dream………..

Posted on February 5, 2012 by Seaworthy

I catch myself dreaming sometimes of the “Big One”, the fish that all stories are made from. The fish that even you have pictures of, and still, nobody believes you. The one that almost broke you, the fight that makes you rethink your manhood. This dream inhabits my thoughts all the time!!

Then one day I saw the kayak that could make my dream come true, the Hobie Mirage Pro Angler! Wow, what a boat. The most beautiful thing I have ever seen. A true work of art.spacer

 Here at Seaworthy Marine we take pride in outfitting some of the most beautiful kayaks the water has ever seen. The opportunities that this particular kayak gives you is endless. From the cold northern rivers, to the tidal back marshes, and even to the deep blue open ocean. The “big one”, is within reach if you are sitting in a Pro Angler. I have seen 8 lb. Rainbows, to 125 lb. Bluefins caught from a Pro Angler. You can outfit the Hobie Pro Angler with an abundance of different options.You can put the Hobie Livewell system on the stern for easy accessible live bait options.

You can even mount a variety of different fishfinder products to fit your every need and situation. Whether it’s inshore or offshore fishing you are involved in, you can fit the Pro Angler in many different ways.

The Pro Angler is a versatile fishing kayak that can fit every avid fisherman or woman’s needs. A wise man once said;

But, I can’t stop fishing,
I told my new wife.
It’s an integral part,
Of all young men’s lives.

But she laid down the law,
It was fishing or her.
Get rid of the tackle,
The rods and the lures.

She wanted no part,
Of those smelly fish .
To tell you the truth,
She was really a…pain.

Well I don’t know what happened,
But after a while,
She just let it go,
Like a bright eyed little child.

And I took her fishing,
For the first time in her life.
And she caught more than me,
My wonderful new wife.

It’s close to forty years now,
And she never stays home.
She says it’s not right,
That I go fishing alone.

Don’t settle for second best. Contact us today and we will help you fulfill your dreams.

Garmin has really gone to the dogs

Posted on November 7, 2011 by Seaworthy

Seaworthy is a company of pet owners and dog lovers. We have spent too many days and nights anxiously hunting down our best friends, as they wander off, following their snouts. Our owner Lynda has some of the most frightening, and entertaining stories of her trials with Bandit and Penny, her Jack Russell Terriers. Bandit in particular has a love for critters, following them through tight brush and snake infested swamps in the uninhabited areas behind their home.  Lynda chased him not far behind, blind in the dark, following sounds of what she hoped was her dogs.

Tired of searching for your hunting dog in tall grass or dense cover? Now you can leave the hunting entirely to him. Astro is the premier high sensitivity GPS-enabled dog tracking system for sporting dogs. This unique system pinpoints your dog’s position and shows you exactly where he is, even when you can’t see or hear him.

One humid spring morning Lynda came in with scrapes on her arms, soggy shoes, and astray leaf clinging to her hair. “This is the LAST TIME I’m hunting this dog down!” She claimed as she grabbed an Astro 220 off the shelf. Since that day, we have yet to see her with foliage in her hair, or Bandit without his Astro collar.

Astro shines when you’re out on the hunt, but it also excels in getting you back to your truck at the end of the day, or even back home again. In fact, the Astro handheld has all the features of Garmin’s top-line handheld outdoor devices, including a barometric altimeter, electronic compass, microSD™ card slot, celestial information, area calculator and rugged, IPX7 waterproof exterior. With optional detailed city street maps, you can search for over 6 million points of interest and create a route on roads with exact turn-by-turn directions.

The features of the GTU 10 are so flexible, allowing you to use it to fit your lifestyle. Travelers: Locate luggage and belongings so nothing gets left behind or lost. Parents: Track your children on their way to school to make sure they arrive safely. Pet owners: Receive notifications when your pet exits a geofence so you can go track it down.

Recently Garmin has come out with a new tracking product that is even more convenient, and multi-functional.  Small enough to fit on collars of smaller dogs, Bandit has made a request to Santa already. The Garmin GTU 10 is only $199.99 and we think it’s well worth it to find our canines quickly. GTU 10 is a GPS locator that combines a web-based tracking service with GPS technology so you can keep watch on children, pets and property. You can track your GTU 10 from our secure website using any computer or with the free Garmin Tracker™ app.

spacer

The GTU 10 is small, lightweight and waterproof. It easily attaches to a backpack, pet collar or whatever is important to you.

You can view the location of your GTU 10 on a map from the friendly confines of your computer. For an added level of convenience, you can download the free Garmin Tracker app for your mobile device.

Easy access to your GTU10's location from your iPhone

Using your computer or mobile device, you can also:

  • Create up to 10 geofences (virtual boundaries) for your device. When your GTU 10 enters or exits a geofence, we can send you an email or text message.
  • View history of where your GTU 10 has been.
  • Customize device settings for optimal performance, including low battery/powered off notifications to let you know when it’s time to recharge or when the device has been turned off.
Fret no more over where you four legged friend has run off to. We’ve put in a special request for Bandit and Penny, contact us today to place an order for yours!

Welcome to Seaworthy Marine!

Posted on June 7, 2011 by admin

Our Brick and Mortar store is located right on the Texas Coastal Bend.That means corrosion big time, Sea salt, wind, heat and  humidity.  Sounds like a toxic waste dump which if you don’t take care of your metal fiberglass and wood boat then it could look like a dump.

We pay attention to the problem and only sell quality products that hold up to this harsh environment.  It sets us apart from many online stores.

spacer

In 2000, when I opened the store, I named it Seaworthy because any boater that came through my doors was going to have product that kept them safe and  their boat seaworthy.

The merchandise on the web is constantly being increased, if you don’t see it we probably have on the shelf.  If you have the time call us. You will talk with a sales person that is on the floor and knows your needs.

A lot of the product we have added over the years comes from our customer’s testimonies.  Additionally, we have a boat yard which both repairs and installs so most likely we have tested the products.
