Who in Vic can repair/replace fin boxes (Tuttle)

I happen to crash the Carbon Art into a submearged tree on Friday and its smashed out the back of the fin box. No damage to the fin (C3),a 20-30mm slice into the tree branch and the rest of the board is fine.

Tried Oke and Trigger Bros and they are unable to do this sort of repair. Anyone else i should try before i commit to doing the job myself.

Sounds nasty!

Rory the Ding Doctor would have fixed it i would say, but as far as I know he's not doing repairs anymore, I haven't even his number anymore.

He used to work out of Park rd Cheltenham maybe someone else knows if he's still around.

Other than that I would post in the general forum with some pics of the damage to get some ideas on the best way to repair yourself.

Sorry to hear kato. There is a guy I've talked to at st kilda that's makes his own boards, full composite bagged layup etc. I'm sure mathew has his contact details. Definitely need someone who is familiar with the complex construction of windsurf boards and not just polyester surfboards, especilly with the miles you travel.
