thx for the pic- like the simple approach.  How bout more pics from different angles?  I'm trying to figure out what that bar across the middle of the board is...

That's a pole spear.

Great info guys! Thanks...Andy

Like Ernest said, it's a 2 piece pole spear.  Usually after the ab dive, I spent some time searching for fresh fish 

Here my beast of burden. 

Looks like a 10" gauge on the last picture.  You're a tropy hunter too huh...

Nice boogie board Dave and love the thumb. Must be a getting old thang. Andy I have a real nice board Saltydog gave me that he found on the freeway. Gonna set it up too. Cant wait to see yours, Craig. Hey Fuzz, wheres yours?

Dave the cargo net is awesome how is everything attached? Joe where is your pics?

No pics handy, but it's pretty basic... I try to avoid shore-diving as much as possible. 
Got a board a while ago from Nate (Spinal Tap) & didn't do much to it.  It has one attachment point for kelp clip, 1 motorcycle bungee net($5), & 2 velcro straps for speargun.  The only thing I'm planning on adding is the $8 backpack strap I picked up from Petaluma Sport Shop & Dive last time I was there.

Nothing against shore-diving, I've had great experiences doing so.  But carrying that stuff up a hill... sucks!

The board was old, so i wasn't worried about doing anything bad to it.  I just poked a really sharp, skinny knife through, then looped zip ties through the hole.  Everything is secured with big, beefy zip ties.  Works great.

That gauge is a 9".  I showed it to show the wrist strap made from an old surf leash.  Easy to get on and off, never tangles, and never falls off.

Check it out! If you like the flag mount let me know.

Hey Dave
I would recomend getting an elastic quick release lanyard on that gauge. You want free dive gear to be streamlined and able to remove in a pinch. Imagine trying to undo that velcro, with a neopreme glove, in current, at the end of you dive. It would be better to slip out of and live to buy another $10 gauge. Just my 2 cents.
