In addition to the 14.5 foot cedar strip/epoxy Expedition SUP
design and the various models developed based on that hull we
are at work designing a 12.5 foot model, the plan is to offer
a similar series of options for the 12.5 as we do for the
14.5. These
are only be available as kits, the construction method for the
structure does not lend itself to being cut by hand, and CNC
cutting greatly eases the building process. Kits contain in
addition to the parts required for the build a CNC cut mold
system. Kit contents can range from the CNC cut parts for the
mold and structure to complete kits that contain all the
pieces required to build the model you choose.
We
have written an addendum to the plans sets for the stitch and
glue SUPS for those who wish to add a cedar strip deck in
place of the plywood deck that is included in a standard kit.
Changing the deck will result in a increase in the weight of
the board, those wishing to compromise between weight gain and
the ability to customize their SUP may wish to opt for just
changing the fore deck to cedar. Contact us for pricing on
customized boards.
Expedition/Explorer/Excursion
14.5
The three
Sup's listed above are all based on the same hull, the
differences are in the deck is layout. There is further
variation of each model caused by the type of fin the board is
to be equipped with. Be sure to download a study plan to
investigate your options, as the choices influence the
contents of the kits and it ranges from difficult to impossible
to build another version of the SUP from a kit designed for a
different model.

Northern
Light 3.8 Sport
This board is
unlike the others in the Northern Light series in that it has
been designed to have a fin box installed to allow for the use
of commercially available fins. This board also has a more
streamlined and more of a 'boat shaped' hull than the other
boards in the series.
