Hi
Does anyone have one of these for sale? They used to be called Kona 11'5 or Exocet X-Longboard.
I sold mine when I moved from NZ to Oz , thinking that I will buy a new one when I get here, but Exocet stopped making them.

Thanks Richard, but I already contacted nzsailing, they do not have the X-longboard in stock (I'm not interested in the windsups, they are too wide and slow)
And If you go to exocet-original, you will see the x-longboard is discontinued (the last 3 was sold early this year)

I just put straps on my old one, planning on getting it wet again. I used mine a lot when my kids were learning to sail mostly lightwind cruising and some flatwater blasting. Never really took it in the waves, although I do have a minitanker that I used in the surf once.

What kind of conditions did you sail yours in?

Can't understand why these boards weren't more popular. Pretty much the only thing that's worth wave riding when it's <14 mph and not a perfect cross off reef.
