Hey guys thanks. The ABS plastic skin really threw me for a loop. It looked
like the board was plastic. That definiatly makes life easier.

A couple of more questions if you don't mind:

What size fin screw do I need for the board. I've got the smaller fin but no
screw for it? Does the 90mm lever work? Every site seems to indicate that
those are for the 2005 and newer boards.

The board came with both mast tracks. The adjustable mast track is almost
impossible to move? How hard should they be to move?

Thanks

Jake
