| This book is delivered as a PDF file sent to your email address. Why PDF? Printing a full color book is expensive and you really don’t need a print of every page anyway. Just print out the ones you want and save money. Plus, you can zoom in on any of the high resolution pictures to get all the detail. And it doesn’ t matter if you have a Mac or PC, both work just fine. Of course the full size spar templates are paper and will be delivered to you by the US Postal Service. |
| AN ELECTRONIC BOOK? ISN'T A PRINTED COPY BETTER? |

The full size spar templates are traced from my master templates. There are four spars as
shown: a 9' 6" longboard, a 7' 1" funboard, a 5' 11" shortboard, and the completely
redesigned 5' 8" fish. Once you paste the paper onto a piece of wood and cut it out you'll
have your very own set too! The nose, tail, and rib locations are clearly marked on each
template. All the rib information including length and width is included in the book. You
could make your own spar from the information in the book but these templates are
available to save you the work. I am sending them for minimal cost anywhere in the world
but this offer is for a limited time only. The catch is you can only buy the templates if you
buy the book.
