Not sure what year Phil Edwards this is. Stange shape, has a nose block, #172[img_assist|nid=1075081|title=Hobie - Phil Edwards #172|desc=|link=none|align=left|width=75|height=100]
Show more pics. Lam close up
Fin close up.
Is it a glass on or box?
Does it have the foil Edwards lam?
What indicates it as an Edwards?
Looking at the larger pic, I see a leash loop hole in the deck. Does it look original, or done after the fact? If it’s original to the board I would guess 1990s.
And, since you mentioned it, why not a pic of the nose block, too?
Clearly has a box. Note the leash attachment. A later model, for sure. Stringers are waaaayyy thinner than the original model, which was 3/4th inch center and 1/4th inch offsets.
Now that you mention it… Gotta have a box with that leash attachment (Duh).
Good info to know, thanks! I knew it was a newer model because of the fin box, just wasnt sure if they were building these in the '70’s. Guess it’s just a '90’s era board. Real fun board, rides well.
