Help dentifying a Stuart Paterson board

Postby Esmith79 » Thu Apr 16, 2015 8:12 pm

Hi,

I afraid I don't surf.... :( however, for years I have had a surf board left by my Auzzie mate, that I am needing assisting with what type it is. This board has been signed by Stuart Paterson. My sister did have it hung on her wall, but has since emigrated so has asked me to get rid of it, but isn't sure herself what is it.
Any help identifying it, what a signed board is worth if anything and best place to sell it.
Appreciated any help given.
Thanks

The company that made it is called Force 9 Surfboards Australia but I can't find their logo on this site which is the one I usually look at http://www.surfcrazy.com/stanleys/html/surflogos.html
So what is worse.... dying or regretting it for the rest of my life? Obviously I chose not regretting it.

Hopefully someone else will chime in on where to sell it but the fact that it is signed probably doesn't mean much as lots of shapers sign their boards. It probably won't be worth much unless it is a limited edition or previously owned by a famous surfer

Force 9 surfboards are made in Caringbah south Sydney NSW Australia here is a link to their site.
http://www.force9surfboards.com.au/
The board is probably not a signature model but most likely a custom model for Stuart Peterson this is often done with custom boards, contact the site and you may get answers.
The board is fairly old and Force 9 is not a major brand although it has been around for over 30 years. Only worth what you can get for it!
