The ‘forty one’ is finished and ready to surf …

So, in short, I’m pretty stoked to have the 1st board finished. It’s taken longer at every step, which is not a big issue when you’re making board for yourself, but it did become frustrating … As you can read from the history here, there’s been some ‘learning’ along the way.

The good … the glass job on the ‘forty one’ is much better than what I did on the “jazz” … that all stems from getting the laps onto the deck wrapped and wet … which then meant I was not chasing the smooth finish sanding and therefore no sand thru’s , well almost none …

The bad … that’s the sand thru at the front of the r’ear fin … as I posted at the time … gotta learn to take my time!

The patch job to fix the sand thru and bubbles holes around the other boxes came up OK.

All in all … stoked … time to go surfing and try this one …
