if you can post a pic of what you have - eg the empty box and or any of the fins you have i will take it to a shaper i know who still has some star fins knocking about - i have star fins on my G&S so if worse comes to worse i could make a mould somehow and post it to you

here’s a coupla pics of the boxes. this board was made in '83 (walker - east coast/FL, i think)

hey Dave - if 9N78W doesn’t want those, I have a friend who has an old board that is missing the star fins. He’d probably be VERY stoked to get his board back in the water…

Hey Nine (I kinda like that, sounds like a song…doo wop hey nine…)

no way, you’ve got “dibs” - I just was saying if you already got some, I know a guy (WAY past 11, but that doesn’t matter) who’d be interested.

aloha,

Keith

hi again - must be proper star boxes then - the next question what type of fins are you going to fit in there - i think there is a difference between the fiting part of the fins Dave_D posted and mine - i will pop one of mine out and get a photo posted - i know the guy who has some spares has the same type as mine

cheers

getting fins for this old board has been put on the backburner again. I PMed Dave_D to let him know I was passing on the fins he offered.

Still, i’d like to see yr fins.
