The plug system that is used to attach leashes to Boogie boards might do the trick. You description even fits a boogie board??
Better post a picture as your description fit just about anything soft! And our advice could ( heaven forbid ) be wrong.

yea it essentially is a large boogie board hahaha.
http://www.elninosurf.com.au/ is the company website, and if you scroll down some you'll see it. its model name is the moke.

Yeh got it, so a soft top alaia, which never had leashed as would you want a hard piece of wood coming back at you!
See if the el Nino range has the DYI plugs and use them. Whatever the case should able to ride that in the flags>
What is your intent with this board?
Should suit the beachbreaks around Sumner or Taylor's Mistake quite nicely, not sure how it would go at Kaikoura or long wally breaks>

No DIY plugs from el nino:/ I guess I'll just have to swim in everytime:P
Unless(and this is a random idea) what if i got a bolt, big washers and basically epoxied it through the body? e.g. drill a hole,bolt and then seal and secure everything with epoxy?
I'm not too fussed by look I just want this board to be able to ride and take some waves

See if your local surf shop has boogie board plugs, they might work!

You can get extra long boogie board plugs, like this one

Which should be perfect.
