Given the current swell outlook... If I was the delivery guy, I'd be forecasting delays on eta.

Yep, CCs on the money.
I got one too, but mine's for somewhere else and another time, perhaps.
I've got another one that needs dusting off...

Fong, check your PMs...

Once again we see a photo of the bonnet ... rotation required ... 180 degrees ... engine room ... if you please.

Mind you that is one hell of a nice bonnet.

Will report back once I've ridden it some more, but it plugs a hole in the quiver and extends my fun surfing niche.

Ah - and the engine room looks good - but what about dimensions please. Angles can be confusing - so please - waist and bust measurements please :D

6'6" x 21 5/16" x 2 3/8"

Titch under 40l, which for me at 6' and 74ish kgs is plenty of foam.
Surprisingly playful.

Thank you!
Is it the light or is there a roll or chine in/under the nose? Perhaps just my eyes playing tricks.
Regardless looks mightly fine and 6' 6" can be very playful

Sorry Jorgo, missed the question.
There's a slightly hullish entry back to the first logo, then moderate single back to the second logo. The gloss makes the single look a bit deeper than it is, and it does look like a pronounced chine that isn't there.
Increasing and quite pronounced vee from there through the fins, deepest between the front fins and back to flat behind the rear fins.

No dramas.
Since been told by Huie that it's not V, but something a bit more complicated.
Buggered if I can figure it out. Glad it's the water that has to figure out what to do with it.
