A New Chapter for RockGARD

Steven - Stephen - Curtis - Andreas

Dear RockGARD Community:

We are writing to inform you of a significant development at S.J. Designs that marks an exciting new chapter in the company's journey.

In 1997, Stephen Jefferies had a visionary idea – to create a boat rock deflector for seamless highway travel. This vision came to life as RockGARD, a product that now offers 16 variations tailored to accommodate various boat lengths and heights.

Recently, Stephen Jefferies made the difficult decision to retire. His unwavering commitment to quality and innovation has shaped the success of S.J. Designs and we want to extend our deepest gratitude to him for his dedication and vision over the last 27 years. With the torch passed on, we are delighted to introduce the new owners of S.J. Designs – Steven Lazowski, Curtis Duffy, and Andreas Kuppe. The new owners are longtime supporters of RockGARD. Their commitment to the product and the industry is evident from the early days when RockGARD was still a prototype, Andreas Kuppe, recognized the potential of RockGARD and was the first to buy the product. While Stephen Jefferies' presence in our industry will be missed, we are confident that the
legacy he built will thrive through the new ownership. S.J. Designs will continue to manufacture and distribute RockGARD products throughout Canada and the United States.

The new owners are dedicated to upholding the same standards of passion, attention to detail, and commitment to quality that have become known with S.J. Designs products. We look forward to your continued support as we embark on this new chapter in the S.J. Designs story. If you have any questions or concerns during this transition, please feel free to reach out to us at (780) 231-4762.

Thank you for being a valued part of the S.J. Designs community.

Sincerely,

S.J. Designs
