Trip went smoothly. Gave prompt/correct response of "9 feet" when asked length by officious United/Ted agent in SFO. No need to flash written regs. One-way journey for this gear so no chance to test the return leg. Also described as surfboard and was charged "only" $50.

Upon arrival, only 3 small dings in bottom rail, easily repairable with MarineTex brought for the purpose (I like that board, but it's fragile). Damage possibly due to insufficient bubble wrap - anyone know cheap source?

Meanwhile, great sailing at Vela after arrival -- but for two weeks prior was nada......

P.S. Tried to send to "regular" windtalk listserve email address, but seems to crash my Eudora?
