A Cool Art Show to go too

Derek Dunfee's brother is having an art show at the Hydrodynamica loft.

Fiberglass Removables

Everyone gets fancy composite fins for their fin systems these days but I still like the good flex and drive you get out of old school fiberglass fins, you know what I mean amigos?

Plant your back foot even with the wing so your foot is right above the fin cluster and put this puppy straight up into the lip.

I had sold this Bonzer 3 Light Vehicle at one point, lucky to get it back. Whew!
