Keel Fins
These fins are for a 5'10' fish.
Having a ban saw is really nice. Much smother than a jig saw, less chipping.
A wall mounted clamp, crucial.
Pasted, ready to glass on.

Tugger's Bluegill
6'10'' recycled foam blank, wood veneer, eco bio resin. The bottom is pigmented blue, so with the bio resin blueish green. we were going for a navy vessel look. The deck has some book matched pieces with some Sequoia for extra pizazz.

SUP finally finished
Once the wood was on and finished touch up shaping, I sent the board to Central Coast Fiber glassing in San Luis Obisbo for glassing. There, Aaron and team did some air brushing laminating, pin lining and put on a foam pad. Now it is on it way to San Francisco for paddling in the bay.

Finishing Touches
This is my new 7'9''. Jim Phillips cut up the poly blank and Mike and I glued in the stringers. 1/2 inch paulownia. I glassed it with epoxy bio resin. We took more footage with a I phone, but I can not download it into my editing booth.

Spread the Love
hey Jon,
Anthony here. You may remember that I had a friend pick up an alaia blank for me in Encinitas. Well when I went down there to pick it up from him we also went over to the Patagonia store. When I saw that orange Bluegill in there I had to have it, So right then and there I bought it and convinced my one friend to demo the larger Bluegill and my other friend demoed the alaia. We surfed in front of the campground and had a blast. It was their first time going finless.
I just wanted you to know how much I am digging the board man. I am working up in Sequoia and Kings Canyon for the summer again. This past weekend I escaped to the central coast for a surf. I felt like I had the secret key to fun walking down the beach with that board. I got some awsome rides and I think this board is one of the most awesome surf crafts ever made.
Check out the pics, hope all is well and keep up the amasing work.
