REVERSE D FIN GORDON WOODS No 4462

 This board is a Gordon Woods
reverse d fin.
No 4462.
With a 1 1/4" balsa stringer and
 1/4" Western red cedar side stringers.

 Pre restoration.
Numerous dings around the rails.
Alot of water stains.
9'4" x 21 3/4" x 3  9/16"
Nose 16" 
Tail 14 3/4"

 The balsa stringer needed replacing
at the nose due to dry rot.
The cedar was fine and did not need replacing.

 Re bonding the delam 
under the fin.

 Typical early 60's foil.
Note the leg rope loop
at the pod.
This board is a rider.

 The CSM fin was cleaned up
and 2 layers of 6oz cloth
was added per side
before being reset.
