Tom Blake first invented these hollow boards when he lived in the Hawaii in the 1920s. They were commercially produced in California in the 1930s, and he also allowed the publication of plans for building them in various national American magazines in the 1930s too.
I have a vintage aqua plane made by the catalina equiptment company. I can find almost no info on this company except for them making Tom Blake boards. Anyone have any other avenues I can follow?
