Stand up paddle surfing? Paddle boarding? Is this something to do with the recent NY govenor? Does your wife know?
Seriously, I hear Executive Paddle Board Rentals rents paddles for $5500. an hour.
Sorry, I'm not helping,am I?
When you find yourself in a hole.... quit digging.

I actually saw someone doing this at Trunk Bay, but I think it was the lifeguard, so I'm not sure if they have rentals there or not. Might be a place to start.

okay Gene - while at Cinnamon a few weeks ago we saw some folks standing on what appeared to be a surfboard-type thing with a paddle in their hands, slowly but steadily gliding across the water. Is that what you're talking about? They must have rented then from the shack at Cinnamon. Looked interesting.

I tried it, but I kept spilling my drink.
