All jokes aside, regarding sloppy boxes!!

The el-cheapo solution is just layers of Electrical Tape on the sides of the base of the fin... But you only get 1 shot at it. For a tight fit, the tape gets a little squished, so if you pull it back out for a second go, you need to re-do some tape...

So you need to know what position you want the fin, and have the plate carefully positioned... or use a "fabricated paper clip" to help position the plate... or similar...

I have a board with the SLOPPIEST BOX EVER!!! 3-4 layers of tape on each side.

PS - it's not a McTavish... All my McTavish boards have top quality fin boxes which are absolute perfect fits for the fins.

Cut a coke can up and wrap it around the base of the fin, or go to KFC and get a plastic straw and cut it in half, both ways work a treat!!

Crap fin take it back to Kmart for a refund.I've never had this issue but all my fins are hand made by WIZ from McTavish fame.

Quality you want go Mc

I just cut up a the guts of a plastic softdrink bottle (2 litre is best) in strips to put on one side of the fin (about 10cm x 2cm) or if fin is really loose I cut it wide enough to go under the fin and up both sides, easy as. Sometimes I just put a single strip on both sides. I think most of my boards have a strip in the fin box.

and if all else fails, you could scratch around the back of the lounge chair for lose change and once you have $1, you can pop out and buy a packet of the real thing.




I actually find them more useful at the side of the fin rather than the base.

You know what's a hoot.

Read all the instructions and every time you see the word "fin" replace it with "dick".



Ps. I just realised, that's heterosexual smut, yippee, I in front by 2 now

and not a dogs dick to be licked
