Dewey Weber Surfboards. Memory tells me they were not around for long (Weber Aus. model) about 1971-72. Your photos are too small to get even the slightest clue as to what the board looks like, or the fin box used. Tiny photos are as useful as no photos, at all.

Still can’t tell what the fin box looks like. Try again.

Looks like a Guidance Systems box. Very rare, as they were only in business for about two years. You might get lucky and find one on Ebay, or try Oneworldsurf, who sells replicas of old discontinued fins.

Pedro,

I agree with the above: Guidance system. BTW, I deleted the other post (under the same title), OK?

Pedro,

A friend saw this post, and he does not have a Sways account. He called me up to tell me to tell you that on e-bay right now is the fin you’re looking for for $38.00. Good luck!

I did a little research on the Weber Australia. I was off a bit as far as year of origin. It seems they were introduced around the Spring of 1970, and discontinued within a year. So, that board is a bit older than I thought. Advertising for those mentions an R and D team consisting of Nat Young, Mike Tabeling, and Jimmy Blears.
