Hi Jerome

Very weird that I was surfing through this site and found your message.
I think that the board you were looking at was mine. Was it the orange twin fin ?

I really wanted to keep that board ! anyway it was a luxury that I could not afford to just have it a board bag in the garage even though I used to hang out at the old Vit Sea factory when I was a Grom.
You will be glad to know that the board went to a great home. The chap was a surfer from the north east in fact he was a surgeon who collects boards. He promised to take good care of it and contacted me to say that he has received the board in perfect shape. I might have his details somewhere.

Regards

Nick

Hi Nick, thanks for that. Unfortunatley i think it was red or blue or green! It was a pintail or squashed tail design shortboard not a fish.
Thanks for your help though!
