2024 Cape Cod Oldtimers Surf Contest
Vintage Board Display
This year's Old Timers Display is dedicated to all the surfers who no longer ride the waves whether they be with us today or not.
My day will come and probaly sooner than I want when my own board will forever lay still.
Today, I can load vintage boards that I have found across the area including gems from sacred locales and others retrieved from long pilgramges.
Every board and seller has as story that I've come to love to see and hear.
The boards when fixing them speak to me of others riders and the waves and their own searching of the soul to find happiness here on Earth.
Aloha!
When I'm gone! - Surf them well!
