Just finished chopping and shaping old JP windsurfing board (nose still needs a little shaping) ready for glassing. It was a 8'1 x 20.5" board, it's now 7'4 x 30.25 x 4, should be sweet in smaller glassy conditions. I know it's no DC 8'8 but at about $600 including deck grip and fins I reckon it should be fun.

how about some more photos, top and bottom and those tricky foil shots.looks like a sick small point break board to me. why don't you send it up to the goldie for some testing cheers
I'm just looking at my Fanatic right now! Don't think I could do it. Might pay to keep an eye out at the next swap meet for an old cheap good sailboard.
Great effort Cam! Looks like you have done a good job putting it together. Let us know how it goes.
Hi I can see the 6 saw cuts to get the tail rocker but how much thickness did you take out with each one or was it just the thickness of the blade? Thanks Rod
