I was putting together a Loc Aura kit last night to replace one that I thought I had lost (but which was subsequently recovered minus one fin). I traced a fin from the new kit onto `1/8" birch ply to later cut and replace the lost one, then started assembly of the new kit.
While looking at the new kit and my old one side by side something looked "off".
The two trailing edge lengths of the newer fin are different than the older one.
Not a major disaster, but WTF?
Wouldn't you expect that Aura fins from 10 years ago would be the same dimensions as Aura fins today?
Manufacturing faux pas?
Deliberate change in fin dimensions?
Rant for today over.
