Hey, didn't know you were a fellow sailer!
I have my eye on a specific board (combo formula/slalom) but it costs about 2.5k brand new. I found an older, yet great shape, one in Australia for $1200. Just need to figure out how to get it to stateside without it costing an arm and a leg. If it turns out that the total cost for bringing a used one costs more or equal to a brand new one, then I'll get the new one locally.
Been sailing since '92 in SF bay area all over the place. Now getting older, I'm looking for a comfortable board yet fast and easy to jibe not like a formula, which I have. This board concept is new to the market and has had great reviews by owners. Sorry to hear you got rid of your gear and stopped sailing. Been addicted since. Hope that you return. rudy
