Help looking for a board.

[SuppageCity]

I am interested in the best all around board.  I know its difficult surf flat etc.  Money isn't the issue either.  Space for one board.  I'm 6'2" 230 rented tahoe 12'6' zephyr, The new C4 12'6", Laird softtops, and the Bark 12'6 as well as the doyle boards.  All I feel very comfortable on.  I like to go out in Oceanside Harbor, Newport Beach, mission bay, LJ Shores and cardiff to swamis.  Advice?

Hey Starboard. why not a 11'6"x 34" or 12'x 35" to fill even more gaps in the line-up.

Keep in mind I do rep for for Coreban, but your height/weight it perfect for the 11'6 or 10'6 Coreban.  Coreban construction is top of the line and built to not only ride great but give you the satisfaction of riding the best made brand on the planet. Depending on what you want to do with it.  The 10'6 will float you comfortably and will be great if you are looking to get mixed into surfing as well as flat water.  I've surfed 1ft. to 10ft waves on it and had a blast.  The 11'6 will be very stable for you and will surf long board style waves like a champ as well be a great paddler on flat water. 

K5 carries Coreban so you should be able to find them locally.  If you are looking for a trip to Santa Barbara, Surfing Sports has them in stock in the Pure series, which are stunning and very light weight.  We also have them available in the wood series, which are just about the most beautiful board on the market.  LA Times featured it in it's gift giving section this past Christmas. 

Good luck in your searching.  There are many options out there.

Joe Blair 10'1" (or have him make you a custom if $ is no issue)...  Good balance for surfing and flat paddling.  It'll float you no problem; I'm 6'1" and 205-210 (but I was 240 when I bought it). 

We're at the shores usually for dawn patrol every Sat.  I'm on a red JB which you can try (or Joe will loan you one - he's in Solana Beach).
