Bluegills in Morocco

Mark in Morocco sent me these pics. The empty lineup is due to Moroccans preferring to surf a little later in the day. These shots are from a morning session. Mark obtained his Bluegill when traveling surfers from Michigan, The Third Coast Surfshop crew, passed through his area. Mark is part of a surfshop and surf community there. One of the travelers left his board with him. It sounds like he rides the board a lot. It is world in the surfing community.

Alaias, cucumbers, chicken, oh my

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.
