Hey Brose
good to see your still upright
I wouldnt know where to start resurecting that board, hell I dont have my glassing stands anymore. (cheap excuse)
Im not sure but I think the fin had a foam core, does that sound correct? Maybe with a strip of wood in it
hard to tell , lots of missing foam under the glass
yep I saw the swell in HB overhead but the shap was odd
sealbeach may be working primo

and stop at tin can beach hang five
then to the river Jetties to have your picture taken
with an old chick in a raggy bikini and then with a 10 year old kid
paddle out and get caught inside

Gosh, this is painful. I wish I was nearby. I’d grab it up quick and get to repairing/restoring that thing.
With the help of Kensurf and Unclegrumpy, the board should make it to be included in the Quigg exhibit at the SHACC. Stoked that it will get outta that back yard and into view again.
Then… probably via the annual Bing container, it’ll make it to me and I’ll see what I can do about getting it back in some kind of shape. Couldn’t let this one slide any further down the path towards the landfill. Will be sure to document the process via a thread here. My first in a long time!
Crazy timing, but I just picked up an original Quigg laminate. Can’t imagine deglassing this thing, but it’ll be a nice thing to have with the package…
FWIW Quigg commissioned John Severson to create his logo; Severson used a photo of his brother Joe surfing Rincon to create the silhouette style image.
The board is now at e SHACC
So now that it’s there, what happens next? Does it get cleaned up, any repairs? Or does it simply get put up in racks?
I’ll repost the photos that unclegrumpy sent me once I’m back in Bordeaux to give a better idea of the condition. It’s rough! But yes, the board will get cleaned up as much as possible, all dings fixed, missing foam and wood replaced… I’d like to get it preserved, and ridable, but am going to leave the battle scars showing.
I’d hate to do a cover job, and glass-off restorations aren’t really my thing in general. I’ll know better how to approach this one once I see it in person. Still, a noble cause!
Thanks again to Kensurf and to unclegrumpy for helping save this one from the landfill.
At least the fin looks intact!
Howdy folks!
Back from the dead, I be! Arrrrr!
What became of this board?
