Got it at a garage sale. Base 8.5", overall length 11.25", height or depth depending on how you look at things 5.5" (not counting finbox insert). Control Fins, Venice, CA. Intended to be a sailboard or surfboard fin? Anyone know any more?
Can't figure out how to get the pic to show.
yep , here too !
...but the clubbie ones here are really thick . The single keel that 'Zosurf' sent me , is foiled nice and thin .
cheers !

hi pc !
Zosurf' here sent me an almost identical one , a few years ago now . Ross ['P-Co' here] has it now .
A single keel , it needed a long finbox to fit in . Luckily the 9'4 cooloola has one , so it mainly got ridden in that .
Which was / is handy , as here in summer , it gets SO shallow that a conventional fin scrapes on the sandbar at times !
it felt great when up near the nose [me , not the fin] , I remember .
it feels like iceskates compared to a wide skateboard , is the other thing I remember , but once you get used to the feel ...fun fun fun !!
enjoy , mate !
cheers

ive seen some paddle boards with a fin on it like the one you have
Hi Peter -
I've seen them on rescue/paddleboards too... the big yellow ones with a slot in the rail to hold on to them. I think Becker used to make them for the lifeguard crews.
