Because FISHY boards are custom, we'll be in contact a lot. Email us to discuss to dimensions and shape of your board as well as other options. Once you have decided on a FISHY Board simply choose your building materials to begin the process. Our prices are like a Chinese menu...It pretty simple. We charge $130.00 to build the board, and then you pay the material cost from there. To get your price just add the basic Craftsmanship cost, core material, resin choice, and fabric choice and you've got your quote! Simple colors, logos and splash-type art are free, but we can always discuss other options. |

| SurfBoards! Due to the highly variable amounts of materials needed for surfboards, please email us for board quotes. Generally expect a $300-$375 price for a glass/epoxy board. Our boards include fins. Fins! Like our Fishy Fins? We can sell you glass-on fins for your own board. If you're local we can glass them on (or in) for you. $30 for Single Fin $60 for Tri-set (side fins will not be fishy shaped) |
| Craftsmanship Cost $130 One, Flat fee is how I get paid. It works out to about $7 an hour so obviously this is more hobby then business. The rest of the cost is up to you. (we don't make any profit on materials) Core Materials Divinycell (pvc foam) $50 Right now we only offer pvc foam because we've not been impressed with EPS. Basically its crap. We are exploring other options in hopes of something more affordable but we cannot sacrifice quality. Urethane Foam (coming soon) This is a more affordable rigid foam which is still very durable and will be available to us soon for about half the price of Divinycell. Resins Epoxy $50 The most scratch/ding proof. Least likely to break. Softer then vinyl giving some mild flex or softer ride. Vinyl Ester $50 Better stiffness especially when hot. We require this as a laminating layer for carbon or very dark boards to prevent heat delaminations 'cause those make you cry. MUCH stronger then polyester which is the industry standard. Fabrics Warp (stiffy) E-glass $50 This E-glass has reinforced fibers in the long direction to give better stiffness then traditional E-glass S-Glass $80 About twice the strength of E-glass and stiffness more similar to carbon fiber. Carbon (single layers over glass) $120 Carbon on a budget. This is actually how MOST other companies do it...although they may forget to mention it in the description of their "carbon" board. This is a very stiff board which can do pretty much anything. Carbon (full double layers) $150 The ultimate in stiffness for maximum coasting ability. The more stiff the board is, the less energy is lost to the water and the farther you go. These easily go for $550 elsewhere and it's what our team rider uses. Kevlar Bottom $100 Bulletproof bottom you say??? Indeed. Say no more to those nasty punctures on the bottom. Very stiff. Very strong. Very yellow (yeah it's naturally yellow, see the sun board in our "boards" section) Carbon Fiber Stringer $35 Once you go full carbon there's only ONE WAY to make the board even more stiff...and it's something you never see in skimboards. A stringer (just like in your surf board) runs the length of the board and causes it to have almost ZERO flex. These aren't balsa like a surf board. If you want the stiffest board in existence then you want to add a carbon stringer. |
| We're sorry, FishyBoards is NOT currently accepting new board orders! We are slowing our sales because I recently graduated medical school and will be working full-time as a interning physician. We will continue to sell FishyGear, sponsor riders, and make very small numbers of skim and surf boards to those who are lucky enough to be shopping when we have limited time to build. We will eventually be at a place where we can increase our production but that's a long ways off right now. |
