Surfbag recommendations that works for hulls?

[Budthedog]

The board is 7' but the fin is almost 12 inches up from the tail. Seems to be an in between range for board bags. I don't need something super padded - not planning on serious travel, I just want something to move between car/apt/beach with maybe a tiny bit of protection. Any recommendations are appreciated!

If fin isn’t glassed in, I’d get a FinJak and just pop in and out and use a 7’ bag. Mark fin position on board for easy placement.

FWIW I was having trouble sourcing a 7’6 single fin bag so I just cut a fin slit in a thruster bag. Very customizable. The fact that it was a second-hand bag did make it easier psychologically. 6 months of light use and no worries so far.

I had a boat canvas shop make a fin slot in a bag I had. Worked great. I later did the same thing and sealed the edges with duct tape. Also worked great and was much cheaper.

Will a canvas bag from the likes of Green Fuz work? I use one on my Ant with the fin at the top of the fin box.

The problem is that you are not going to find a padded bag that has a fin slot that fits a fin that’s 12” from tail. You’ll either need to find a sock type bag that has enough slack to fit with fin on, or remove fin if possible.

Yup. Or get a longer bag and don’t use the fin slot - the bulge from the fin will shorten up the overall bag length.

Thanks guys, these are good ideas. Green Fuz bags looks nice! Maybe a little fancier than what I want to spring for atm so I’m going with the cut a hole and duct tape strategy. Also probably grabbing one of those Finjaks too - didn’t know about those and they look helpful.

I have a 7’6 Dakine thruster bag for my 7’0 Klaus Jones Dirt. I just use a thumb screw and pop my fin in before a surf
