Left point and right point will be the same length.

But length is the length of the stringer, so just measure the mid-line.

Sorry - got to wind you up here - if you knew to look on the bottom for the size, you should've known to measure the stringer!

Though - I've known a few people now who have fish and for some reason, a lot of them don't have the dimensions etched in. Weird.

Well he asks questions, like "is a gun a longboard" and then he gets a pissy when someone tells him to look on the back

Hold a straight edge across the pintails and then measure from there to the nose of the board along the stringer with your tape measure and that is the length of your fish.
