Revisiting the 8'9"

I want to thank everyone for their input so far on the 8’9" I’ve been brainstorming. Feeling it’s best to start with what the footprint will look like, I’ve traced out some preliminary outlines to scale and it looks best to me with a wide point of 21.75" fairly close to the middle. The nose looks best at about 13-13.5" and the tail in the 16-16.5". Any opinions one this? Of course the templates will have the ultimate say so on where things go widerer or narrower but input before mowing the foam is invaluable. I’d appreciate and technical support from the experts out there when it comes to rail and bottom configurations along with nose and tail rocker advice of course. Blank choice will have to come as a result of these of course. Depending on the conditions I plan on having some fun experimenting with different singles and thruster combinations. Good Surfin’, Rich
