It's actually only 7'10 x 21 3/4 x 3.
I have had this board made for a trip to PNG in December and for bigger days at Greeny where I have felt like the Firewire short board I was riding wasn't enough. McTavish call it "high volume" but I think it will be plenty small enough. Hopefully it will float me ok and as i said I only intend to pull it out when its over 3 ft.
I haven't surfed it yet so can't report. I went a wet & dry finish rather than a gloss for something different. I'm not sure I would go that way again.
Finally !!
SP we are staying at Nusa Island Retreat. Never been there before or surfing OS so really looking foward to it.
