i used to have an old 6'8 surfboard real thick and whenever the waves got over three foot the fin would whistle kind of cool and i could definately feel the vibration through my feet
Hey Johno, me thinks fin too mate.
Had the same, reseated the fin, better fit and no more noise.
But I do miss it, used to start at about 25 knots, sounded like a supercharger cutting in
hi firiebob it's amazing how i thought this was only happening to me at this part of the world..so as i said i set the fin and all sides looks perpendicular 90degs. so i guess next step would try to sand..mineral has pm'ed me regarding chamfering so will try with 600grit..surfboards too huh?!? maybe if all the whining fins got together that'd all be nice to hear
Nebbian, if you can get this musical fin thing really wired, you'll be set for life, d'you realise that? You'd be in demand all over the world, at every big windsurf contest, even yacht races and things like that. Money, cars, booze, women - the world will be yours...lucky bastard.
Julien, the whistling has nothing to do with the rig, board or fin.
you need to go back to using a seat harness to cover up that god ugly hole the whistling is really coming from.
PS: Boardies over the speedos helps as well
