Current Newsletter

Newsletter December 2014
Dear Paddlers,
This will be our last Newsletter for 2014. Hopefully it finds you all well and in particular
getting out there and enjoying your kayaks and/or SUP’s.
Just a reminder that most of our stores close for Christmas break from 24th December to 2nd
January. Please keep an eye on www.kayakgroup.com.au for specific opening hours for
each store over Christmas.
January 2015 Price Increase
Many of our products are imported and paid for in US Dollars. Even our Australian made
products are made largely from imported materials and components and so are also
affected by exchange rate fluctuations.
Over the past four months we have seen the Australian Dollar fall from just under 95c (USD)
to just over 82c (USD). This represents a cost rise of around 14% on all imports.
To date we have managed to wear most of this but if the exchange rate remains at around
82c (USD) or lower then we will have no choice but to increase our prices in January 2015.
Fortunately for us everyone else is in the same boat so we will still guarantee you absolute
best prices and fantastic value for money.
Scorpio Albatross
Sale Price $998
Always on the lookout for something new we brought in a container of the ALL NEW
Scorpio Albatross just to test the market. The response has been overwhelming and we are
down to just a couple of units left in stock (at the time of writing).
Our next container arrives end January but get your orders in before Christmas if you want
to avoid the price increase. A $200 deposit will secure your Albatross at the current price.

Recognising the need for a reasonably priced quality range of composite sea kayaks here in
Australia, we went out and did some serious investigating.

competitive prices.
