It's a macro in my world, at 6'2"x23"x3 1/4" +/- ! It's for Haut Surf Shop owner, Jeff Langston, who's an older gent, so there's way more foam than normal. But, still not just a fat D railed boat. He's going for a quad + single box, and wanted a slightly different tail. So, there's a very drawn in hip, with a whale tail. Weird being asked to leave volume, but it was fun all the same. Thanks Jeff!
