Well,
There is always a catch.
RRD 90 twin.

I cracked her pretty good on a flat landing 2 or three years ago.
Deck lamination still fine

It's dry, but i ripped the bottom laminate off from the front straps to the fin boxes.
The boxes are fine.

it's a major repair, but not too complex if you know what you are doing.
I will not give it away if you are just going to hack at it with marine tex or something.....wants carbon cloth and a vac.

I'm just out of time with my life, i just stare at it saying yeah...".i'll get to that"....and i haven't.

So: if you want it...and can deal with it properly...pm me

2010 I think....black and white

I think it would take a patch maybe 3 feet long with just a bit of rail wrap, but I'm just not into the whole finishing thing., If I was doing it I would do a couple of short stringers on the foam which must be cracked.

I think it wasn't a great layup, as the skin didn't seem well bonded in that area

I guess I could ship if payment was easy. I would guess that's around $150 to you, but then we start talking time again and that's what I'm looking to shave, although sounds like you have the skill set

Let it percolate here for a week, and if nobody else speaks up easy, you get first dibs

Most cracked boards that I fix that are as bad as you described normally need to get the deck fixed also. You may not see the hairline crack in the deck because of the vinyl sticker they have on the boards. Most likely the Divinycell has be compromised and would need fixing both top and bottom. Also getting the rocker just right will be critical, otherwise you will have a dog on your hands. Fixed about 10 cracked boards the last 5 years.

I have a bag of garbage free to who ever wants it. Mostly household trash with a bit of meat scraps(the dog would not even eat) and chicken bones.
You have to pick it up! No shipping!
And do it soon because that SH!T is starting to turn.

Just trying to be green here

Pete: It's salvagable ...had some recent experience with the desire to Over-Engineer....and we have radbrad here....he sails marinetex boards and ducttape sails....rips harder than 95%....Only reason the board is not his, is i can't find which boat/bridge he is living in/under....i think still in maui


JE: Next time i am over there we are going to take a HARD look in YOUR shed.
I mean that back wall has shit left over from the 60's....we are talking 4 yard dumpster at minimum

rigit my second post was intended for you via pm

I've had and seen too many broken or delammed boards fail very quickly after being rebuilt by the shaper who initially made them to have any faith in repairing them except as an experimental and educational alternative to watching reruns of Gilligan's Island. I certainly wouldn't sail them farther out than I wanted to swim, and the extra weight is not appealing. I guess much depends on the local and web-based used gear availability and the individual's skills, spare time, and tools. I figure a board failed for a reason, and putting a Bandaid on it may not treat the underlying disease. Last time I snapped a great board in two I just began snapping up good used ones as instant backups. Problem solved AND I got to watch Giligan.

YMMV.

Well....
A careful exam shows a bicycle seat (well actually a full bicycle) conoting a certain amount of depth to the pig pile.

There has not been a road siting of that bike in at least 7 years.

Then there is what looks to be a lobster pot.....

Sure, the top layer is the most recent....that's Geology 101.

Discriminating viewers would notice that there is stuff hanging from the rafters, and that the light penetration from the picture window isn't what it was intended to be.

But hey, this isn't about your crud...it's about mine....and whatever isobars says has to be true....i know now that the board can never be repaired
