Hi all,
i've got a 2001 starboard starfish (240x57cm, 85L) in ok condition with some minor dings on it. Also got a North Shore Maui custom delaminated at the mast base (the previous owners will probably recognise these characteristics). I want to get rid of the starboard cause its a bit small for me, and fix the custom. If anyone is interested in the starfish make an offer, or I would exchange it for a bit of epoxy and fibreglass!
Cheers!

I wouldn't swap it for glass and resin etc. The fish would have to be worth $200 in bad condition and to fix a 3cm square delam would be about $50 materials tops (that is if you can get and offcut of divinycel which shouldn't be too hard)

If you really want to go down that path I'll swap it for all the glass you need, 1/3 sqm carbon and 15cm x 15cm divinycell. Howzat?

It was worth a try I see u r in WA. Go to Fibreglass and Resin Sales in Kewdale / Welshpool.
Get West Sytem epoxy and slow hardener (106 resin and 205 hardener from memory). Some thin glass, (I use a crowsfoot weave as it goes around corners well and is denser for same thickness) and if you can an offcut of thin carbon or kevlar. They should be able to give you a 20 x 20 piece of 4mm thick divinycell for nothing. That would be about $50 and the leftovers will last many repairs.
Check out boardlady.com for how to do.
