42 of course!!! Very excited how my latest is coming along. Bottom sandwich is on, next step is the top sandwich. Keef is working on the footstraps. My big question is, will it get me to 70km/h before I'm 70? Thanks everybody that helped with the tail width

Make sure you take your towel with you! What the strag (non windsurfing hitchhiker) will think is that any man who can sail a board of that length and breadth, rough it, slum it, struggle against terrible odds, win through, and still knows where his towel is, is clearly a man to be reckoned with. We need more piccys, looks great.

looks great mate! good work keefs straps will be a great addition to this board... I've been riding keefs latest production and I love it that much that the 44 has stayed at home on two occasions now, and I love my 44 but this thing just doesn't seem to scare me as much especially over the 40kn mark I hope this gives you as much pleasure as I'm getting from the speed nut nothing better than having something no one else has ;-) look forward to see what it will do

I've tried my best, we'll see.
Hardz will be a trembling
He dropped around yesterday, came out of the shed drooling.

Sorry Bender, I'm sure there'll be times when I just don't want to sink!!! My calculations say this will be about 60litres, think it will be hard to keep upright much under 15kts.

It is truly a thing of beauty already Mike, just add water (and wind). Hope I can be there when it does get you well over 70kms :-)
