Eva absolutely knows her stuff, so it's hard to ignore her advice. You might want to take Jrobb up on the F2. Sounds like his offer benefits both of you in a good way, and the sharing is good within our sport.

One more thing. Regarding use of a fin screw not made of stainless steel is not a great idea. I would think using your original screw with its stainless steel tab is a much better idea. Also, at least from my perspective, I'm not a fan of brass tabs for the fin or mast track, as I've once had one fail causing my rig to separate from my board. However, in fairness, the event happened in the surf. Still though, I was damn lucky to ultimately find my sunken rig off the bottom.
