doing a number on an old tyronsea firetail - tail[broken off at front of finbox]reshaped tail and glassed, filled center board and several minor dings,leaving mast track recess as carry handle =10ft 8 sup.is there any one out there that can tell me where i can get a fin box,also what size fin ,just planning single fin and only for use on flat water.how far from rear of board.

i'am in port pirie south aus,found a couple of surf board builders in adelaide so i'll see what i can come up with. the board is 26inch wide,they were originaly 225ltr but with 400mm off the tail its down a little on that.i suspect it will be fairly stable,better than my 148 ltr techno 2 that i tried and found a little tipsy[i weigh 95kg]

that sail offer still stands champcrow.

did you buy another paddle [carbon]thats something i'd like to try before i buy,have you still got the orriginal paddle or did you trade it in.

Your board is very narrow and will be quite tippy. As you are only using it on flat water I would go for a large fin to make it more stable. Have a look as champcrows fin, it has a lot of area near the tip which makes it resist tipping. You want something like this, or even a bit bigger.
