well, after being separated for a year ,
the ‘mal-adjust’ is now in one piece
in desperation i paddled it out in howling northerly windslop just to get the shoulders and back moving , and to get the beach empty.
Is it just an optical illusion, or is the finbox on that board almost 2 feet long?
JSS
Ben,
Glad the two of you are getting back into the water. Do I dare ask? Fin set up? Mike
Looks like a great fix Chip, got any close ups of the join, I’d be interested to see how it was done…

LOL!!
Surely you keep your shorts on when riding the blue thing right???!!
ROFL!!
Good one, chip, nice fixer-upper, fill us in on the repairworks… and yeah, is that a two foot finbox? How many single fins do you put in there? 4?
Nice repair work! You might be able to drum up some business if the wait time was a little bit shorter.
Howzit maxmercy, It does look like very long box. The longest boxes I’ve seen are a 15" one that Bahne makes.Aloha,Kokua
hi crew !
12" box
one fin
sorry to disappoint
2 layers of 6 oz , top and bottom
swapped the hull[ible ] board for the repair .
and got rid of two other [sub 6’ ] boards . [a busy week …]
now we just need favourable weather
it’s still doing the 40 knot onshore and pissing rain all week thing at the moment .
west coast winters …

…Get on the nose Benny! : )
Hmm its the ol digital camera stretching the box trick 99!
Hi chip be proud of that tailblock bro, you know, the more stripes in the wood layers the faster the board goes…
