Meet the Crew

Sea Star Stable Crew

"Sea Me Smile" Pippin

Kara's main competition horse. Purchased as a 3 yr old from the track in 2004. Pippin is quite a character and smiles for treats! He has successfully competed at Preliminary in eventing, the 1.20 meter jumpers, and is currently schooling third level dressage. His true love though is out hacking with mom + running on the beach!

Manta Ray

Owned by Pete King and Kara. He was purchased off the race track in 2004 with Pippin. Successfully competed training level eventing and has schooled preliminary and second level dressage. He was 9th in the nation at Training in 2011. In 2011, he won both Prelim-Training divisions at UNH. He retired from main competition in 2012 with a 4th place finish at his favorite event, GMHA. Manta has begun his teaching career in 2012 and is quickly becoming a favorite among the more advanced students.

Cresent

Cresent joined us just a few days before Christmas 2012. He is a well known, incredible lesson pony from Winning Ways stable. He has stolen the hearts of the students who have ridden him :-) Cresent has recently retired from lessons but still helps teach academy unmounted lessons!

"Better Believe It" Baloo

Baloo is a 2008 Clyde/TB cross. He is Kara's current project and is turning into quite the successful show-man! He loves to work and is the most friendly guy in the paddock! See the results section for his current show record

Domino

Domino is our 13.2 hand lesson pony who can start riders or work with older kids learning to canter and jump. He has been out competing in pre-elementary events in 2012 with Sarah Suidit and doing very well.

Optimus

Optimus is Baloo's full brother and came to SSS in Nov. of 2013. 2009 Clyde/TB cross. Standing at 17.3 at 4 1/2 he is a very prominent new addition to the SSS crew. We'll see what his future holds! He is Ryan's pony!

Bing

Bing is a well loved 14 hand cross. He's solid w/t/c and apparently has a successful history in the pony jumpers! Bing helps with hippotherapy as well as with beginner to intermediate riders. He's awesome on the lunge line and he's the definition of a point-and-shoot pony!

Fieval

One of the favorite lesson horses. Fieval competed with Kara for many years up to novice and first level dressage. He teaches his riders that riding correctly will give you a wonderful feeling of throughness.

"Rapify" Rappy

Rappy is owned by Ellen Whitman but SSS riders have the opportunity to ride and learn from this wonderful mare.

Moshi

Moshi
2004 14.3 hand Paint Gelding who joined SSS in March of 2014. He's fitting in very well and already won ribbons in dressage and schooling xc. Looking forward to a long and happy partnership with this lovely guy!

Smokey

Owned and ridden by Pete King. Smokey has successfully evented up to beginner novice and also rides western! Occasionally SSS riders can catch a ride on a very smooth trot!

Grover

Grover has just joined SSS in April of 2016. Born in 2008, he is approx 12.3 hands and has been to quite a few barns in his short life so far. We are hoping he loves being a part of SSS and the kids will love riding him!

Aros Brave Brayden

Our resident watch dog... nothing gets past Brayden!

Livets Feisty Fern

Fern was born June 10, 2014 and joined the SSS family in early August. She loves everyone + loves to give hugs!
