JD,

1 pound ice chest foam.  :)

Pilon,

Rear of the fin at the furthest wing (the wing closest to the tail).

Always hard to get a true, true read with the distortion of photos, but that is really looking nice.  Going to be a screamer in chest high beach-break. Definite flash-back to the 1986 twinnie era w/ the outline, double wing... but the rails give her away... not so 1986. Don't know what the thickness is at the stringer, but sure hides it well. Gotta know, are you putting in a 3rd fin box so you can play around w/ a trailer, or are you fully committed to the twin?
