I'm pretty sure they were never mass produced. They had some prototypes out there.

One downside to the board would be finding the board after you get separated. If its clear - its going to blend in.

It would be more of a novelty thing, really like the looks of it.

I was thinking of doing something like this to my skim.
basically machining out a stepped pocket in the center of the skim and inserting a flanged piece of acrylic for a window.
That way the board still has it's overall structure and it's only a skimboard.
figured it might be cool to see those sturgeons below the water that gman films.
