I mean obviously right she chose me.

I have been rabbiting on about a log for ages and she was a surf stoked grommette until she got dragged over the the front of the Alley rocks and ended up in hospital. Anyway, she's keen to get back in the water.

She comes home yesterday and shows me the board she wants. Noosa 66 McTavish, she wants a 9'6 in volane and tints even. I mean she works in a surf shop but I was super blown away.

I suggested some other boards as well, her response 'nah, there not McTavishes'. Wow!

Not likely mate given Coco Mats pay for her lifestyle. She wants a traditional log, no such thing as a Coco Mat traditional log. Thanks for bringing that up though

My Missus loves my nimbus and my PSH .

When I bought my Mc Tavish she looked at it and said what did you buy that heap of s..t for .

Looking at a Starboard last week and was told if I buy one of those things she may be tempted to remove my testicles

Must add she doesn't surf, just gets to clean up around them in the man cave .

This one looks nice. http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/melbourne-cbd/surfing/9-5-mctavish-noosa-66-almost-new-log-longboard-/1019061422


The board she likes is the one straight off the website:

www.mctavish.com.au/surfboards/traditional


For longevity though I'd probably go solid white pigment on the nose to make sure it doesnt go brown, it's the kind of board you'd keep for many years. I'm still regretting the day I sold my Classic Mal version of the same thing.


Just a question for Mac if he reads this.


'If' I was to ride it as well what kind of dims would you reckon I'd need to knee paddle at 85-88kgs?

Totally agree , from what I have heard
