FRIENDSWOOD, Texas,
May 25, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- The
Leslie Lightcraft Co., founded by a
former NASA Mission Control team member, is officially entering the water sports
and exploration markets the weekend of Memorial Day. The Leslie
Lightcraft Co. is opening a pre-sale event of their patented stand
up paddle craft, May 27. This event
marks two years of design and
manufacturing testing, which was
successfully concluded last week.
"We are thrilled to announce we are open for business," states Christopher Leslie, owner of Lightcraft Co.
"This is a product that will change the key demographics for paddle
sports and allow an entire population who wouldn't have been able
to participate to get out and enjoy the exploration of it all. Our
investors are not only satisfied but proud, our manufacturing
partner is ready, the product is proven and we are ready to
launch!"
Based on work in Mission Control and then from leading a lab of
aerospace research and development, Leslie has engineered several
key features of this new product. The patented Lightcraft product
which resembles a small catamaran, dubbed "Mark I", will enable a
new demographic participation. "The
stability is, by far, the most
advanced feature; it feels like you
are standing on the deck of a boat instead of on a tight wire like
you feel on a typical fall-down paddle board," cites Leslie.
Other noted features are the carrying capacity which can support up
to 450 pounds. "Anyone, regardless of body-type, can go explore the water on a
Lightcraft," confirms George Finch, Director of Distribution. Finally,
the aerospace-inspired design allows the "aquanaut" on top the
ability to move through the water with less effort. "You can go
across a lake, go further, farer with less effort because of its
hydrodynamic design," states
Dennis Kovach, Director of
Operations.
Leslie Lightcraft Co. officially opens up their pre-sale event
May 27. The industrial molds are in
work and full-scale production of the product will begin for the
2020 buying season. Discussions with distributors are
finalizing and the purchasing and shipping process for individuals
is ready to go.
"This really will change the way people access the water for
recreation and sport, the Lightcraft will enable an entire
population to enjoy and explore waters across the world," cites Leslie.
