I'm pretty happy with myself because I made these racks for my boards and they worked out great...Here's a few pictures.

I was running out of space in my workshop so I had to make use of what ever space there is..and racks to hold these big/long/heavy boards are not available.





I started with plain tubes to hang the boards on and then used big cardboard tubes as rollers..I then covered the cardboard with this rubbers stuff that I got from ClarkRubber.



I just lift the nose onto the first roller and push it forward and it just rolls effortlessly on the rollers until in place..The lower board shown here half way on.







I also got sick of tripping over my paddles and them falling over all the time..So they get hung also.





I just thought if anyone else is wondering what to do they might get some ideas from this.

Where the Glide is going to sit - you need to create another slot, or are you going to sell your aircraft carrier? When is it due to arrive?

Great idea David. You could paton that. But have you ever thought of cleaning that shed up. It's a bloody mess !! Look like you need a garage sale.

Yeah Sue.. It's a bit of a mess right now.. Come Summer I'll do another clean out... The problem with heaps of space is that you get heaps of mess.

I don't think the normal surfboard boards rack work that well with these big boards... Even windsurfers at 8'-9' are pushing it.

Hey JB... If those old speed boards were a bit bigger they might work SUP'ing for downwinders...

Not related to SUPing but saw the sailboard by Neil Scheltema and thought I would dig up this old baby. Check the rail stringers, box reinforcing and bonza fin.
