This belongs to a long time friend of mine, I have to admit to coveting this stick over the years, kind of like the song "Jesse's Girl" by Rick Springfield. It was built in 1982 as a twinnie by John Mel in S.C. and was a super fun ride as I recall now, but that could be hindsight....;-). It was a twinnie that didn't slide out in my memory bank, but Pat recalls her differently and hence the small trailer fin was added.
In '82 we surfed a fun corner of the coast with just a handful of people (4'-6'and offshore, sunny) and Pat's dog Primo charged across the rocks after a white tailed deer. He didn't get to it as the deer took the swimmers path and leaped into ocean, not coming out till she was safely out of reach hundreds of yards away heading up the sheer cliffs.
In '82...... we were of course younger, less lined and fuller in head hair. The kids were kids, not adults training for a trip up Mt. Kilimanjaro. 101 wound it's way more leisurely through quiet little hamlets in this area and Rellie thought 6'-8' and glassy was funny, still.

If I was sitting where that board is sitting...
I'd be drinking a beer...
Come to think of it...
I was.
