Thanks John.

Ill be doing something like that, but I have gotten the idea of using a fin from a surfboard instead of making my own. It will be modified a bit get a good stable fit in the box, but it should give me a better and more efficient profile, than I can mock up on my own.
Has anyone tried this before??
