Vintage Paipo Nui SOLD

#1

Unread post by Poobah »

I'm selling my vintage Paipo Nui for my cost at $375. The board can be picked up in Northern California in Lucerne, or I could drop it by your house on my way to the beach. I'm heading down to San Diego later in July or early August. Humboldt or Oregon are also possible, but I'm not sure when.

The board is in good shape. Worst flaw is somebody sanded cross grain on the plywood deck before they put on the clear resin. Bottom is pigmented orange. Shape is similar to the large HPD, but with a more rounded tail.

A guy gave me a Paipo Nui. It's waiting restoration of sorts. The logo was sanded off, a glass bottom added, soft foam added to the deck and the ply has started to separate. It also had holes drilled in the deck so it could be used as a water toboggan. In comparison your's is in mint condition.

It was bought in Hawaii and I described the PN logo which sounded familiar to Pete.

The sale is still pending. It's not a done deal until it's done. I expect it will, but you (Airboy) can be the first alternate if the buyer changes his mind.
