I'll have a muck around tonight for you. At your weight sub 8'0 is easy.
Do you want it for an allrounder, upto 4 foot, say 8ft face or just for small waves 4 to 5 ft face.

The weather has nearly cleared here, we have had nearly a constant blackout from Thurs arvo till about 5pm last night.

I have to go to work for the arvo now that power is on. We just got back from coffee. Have a look at this first quick draught. Just to see how small I could go for 75kg and the requirements. This is for small waves, lots of tail lift.

The planshape is 7'8" long the measurements are taken from along the rocker line which is a bit longer, its just the way the program works.
