Hi Bruce,
Come and see us in Noosa. We have quite a few used SUP's for sale as well as some great deals on new ones. We also give free lessons with each board sale and you can demo them as much as you like right in front of the shop before you buy! Its good to learn some technique when you start out.
Give us a call on 0412 175 217 to organise a time to meet up. Any day is fine.
Cheers.
