The Master




Marc Andreini shaped a beautiful displacement hull single fin semi-gun especially for the trip, a true “one board quiver” that would work from 2’ – 12’ and which would excel in the J Bay power zone. The glasser at Haut created a color that mirrored a Bougainvillea flower that Marc brought into the shop in a zip-lock bag. The end result is a beautiful pintail single fin that Marc hand-delivered to Mollusk; resident artist and friend Serena Miller then designed one of her wonderful kelp/water creations in base coat on the deck, which Moni is tracing over in the image above.

Good on you creating a blog about your trip. Looking forward to getting updates from J-Bay.
