Thanks to other topics for inspiration for storage racks for garage.

I considered using broom handles for racks but decided to use 70x35mm timber instead, more solid. The materials cost $82 from Bunnings, which was less than broom handles. The studs in the wall were 500mm centres, and the racks are 1500mm apart on wall. The timber in each rack is 800mm long, with 710mm width usable. The rack spacings are multiples of 100mm.

Storage for fins and extensions and bases, fin covers removed in photo. Some ideas in old topic, but none used plastic storage tubs. 34L Under Bed Storage Container, W:390 H:155 L:790, $10 from Bunnings. Same tub to left in photo in previous post.

Latest iteration:
Zooming in on the pic should be self explanatory. I think the total cost for the new racks was 40 dollars.

I've noticed nobody hangs their sails by the specifically designed off centred bag handles

Hey, ive used some prefab shelving system. Each metal arm can support 55kg. So a sailboard or two wont be an issue. I slid 25mm electrical conduit over the metal arms to protect boards.Easy as.

No nice new boards though!!

Sorry mate, but I'll be showing your photos to my missus to prove that I don't even come close to setting a record with the amount of gear I've got
