Hi Steve Like Bob, I use a "stock" Nolimitz skinny 430 mast and long Nolimitz skinny extension with my SSW 5.7. It was suggested to me that I would get more ...

On Sat. I'd gone all the way to Marrowstone just to slog for 15 minutes on my 7.5. I wish I Windsurf would hurry up and add Marrowstone to the pager service....
