Stand Up Paddle Boards
2008 Starboard Cruiser 12'6''
The Cruiser. The 2008 Starboard 12'6" x 30" stand up paddle board is a great, fast cruiser for riding in both lake and ocean settings.
The board's exceptional glide comes from its added length, and its smooth, stable feeling makes it a hit for "downwinders" and "point to point" paddling. This is also a nice board for catching your first waves, and it will continually surprise you with its good carving abilities. The 2008 Starboard 12'6" is a classic all-around stand up board.
The Used Tufskin shown here was used by a Big Winds Team Rider. The board, when new, was damaged in transit and professionally repaired before ever hitting the water. Call us and ask for Mark to get more details.
