I think we can conclude by now (in the 5 year history of foiling) that if you must use a board with a stock deep tuttle finbox not expressly rated for foiling, you should use a foil with a flange. This spreads the load more onto the bottom of the board rather than just the box.

Also, use a large washer on top to spread loads onto the top skin, too. If your board has those chimneys that the screws fit down into, definitely go with a top washer that bridges those chimneys.






I want to use a large washer like this, but the two screw holes are not level with each other. The back screw hole is lower than the front (and on a rounded surface) as the board is rounded down towards the tail. Some solutions I'm considering:
-Build up padding on the washer to match the contours of the board. Not sure what material to use.
-Build up the board to make the two screw holes align.
-Use two large square washers
-Figure some way to bend the washer to match the contour of the board.

Suggestions?
