Prone paddle board

General Discussion
1

I am looking for plans for a plywood or strip prone/knee/rescue board. Not a SUP.
Hard to find but would be a beautiful project in “kook” hollow wood method.

Anybody have any help on this - not interested in a Kit - but also not a designer myself - just a builder…

There was a thread on the old grainsurf forum aka T2S that was a collection of old plans

My Scrapwood Blake build is also there:

that was then, this is now…

Here is a paddleboard on WBF that makes me drool:

Hey Nick
Hows the project going. Im out here in NS too and making plans to shape a prone board, out of foam though. Hows your luck been in sourcing resin?
Cheers
