Thanks for the info, Brad.
This leads me to three questions:
1. Does anyone in the group have a Chinook system mast foot lying around?
2. I could also use a fin (older style, fits into a slot and has a flat, square
kind of nut to hold it in place in the board. It's for an old (25 yrs. old?)
HiFly board.
3. I also need a replacement for a 12 foot fibreglass mast that broke in the
middle or does anyone have a simple way of repairing it).
I am willing to pay a reasonable price for these items.

here may have parts laying around still. The person that gave you the board in
the first place??
