Any of you Gents have any info on "Happiness Surfboards" I believe it was a board label briefly in the 60's? Is it still an active label?

Cowabunga's

Never heard of that one. Sounds like it might be an obscure one from the transiton period done by some hippie types.

Happiness was Sam Gornto’s label in the late 60’s.  Shaped by Pat O’Hare in Cocoa Beach.

Thanx guy's! I also just came across an old Happiness logo on the Surfcrazy logo website. Happiness is clearly from Cocoa Bch.

Greg - Do you happen to know if Sam Gornto is reachable? I'll start searching. Thanx again.

Greg - Tried to PM you but link wouldn't work. Just came across the EC surfing hall of fame of which you and Sam Gornto are class of 200 inductees. Wow, your bio is an interesting read. It's so awsome that we newbie's get the help we do from such experienced individuals such as yourself.

I'm still trying to dig up Sam's contact info regarding his late sixties "Happiness" logo.

I didn’t see Sam on facebook but you might email Claude Codgen  at “claudecodgen@sunshinesurfboards.com”  He should know.
