    Homemade carbon rideplate

    I only made the extra one for Shane since he asked, it was the second I made. I'm not trying to retire making rideplates. :) Glad to hear it is still holding up. With my -3 OEM hull, I ended up keeping a slightly extended alum plate on it. Still keeps the nose up for surf, but does not 'bob'...

    Surf Boat Basics 101

    for newb's. don't let the breaking waves slap into the side of the boat when reboarding or regaining balance. Quickly turn the boat into or away from the incoming waves. Seen many riders seperated from the ski and/or sinking from this Never let go!

    There are still some holdouts that need to be enlightened on the greatness that is the front parabolic sponson. Preach the Gospel to your fellow surfriders

    Liability insurance for 'homebuilt' or 'kit' watercraft

    because you are trying, for example, to insure a 2007 aftermarket hull as a 1997 Yamaha Superjet and it's not a 1997 SJ. It would be like swapping the VINs on a car. You get ins and tags on your 93 truck that now has a 96 VIN on it that was swapped out illegally. Sure, you can BUY the insurance...

    Liability insurance for 'homebuilt' or 'kit' watercraft

    Maybe check with the AWA, apba, or ijsba and see if they have any ideas for ya?? He's got the umbrella, but as he said the umbrella policy requires that he have a seperate $500k liability policy on the ski. Called 'underlying limits'. The umbrella has +Million liability, but only after...
