Great board to ride that one. Had the exact model but in technora rather than wood.

That is a custom made board, not a production board. It could have any volume. It looks very old 1985? It would be a terrible choice of board for you. At a guess, volume could be anywhere between 95-115 liters.

Assuming it is Trigger 9'6" to up to 10 feet say 115 to 130 litres approx (comparing it to the volume of a Bombora Tri Fin or the earlier 3 m Bombora Dromedary). Modern rigs may possibly work on it as it seems to have added a mast track aft of the original position, unless I have missed something. The original position is assumed by me to be in the black hole (forward of the mast track) from the original of around 1981- 1982. Try it and see as your photographs are not very clear given the camera angles. You can always change boom heights and/or run a higher mast base to fix the issues. Board will cost around $20-50 on its own so it is worth a try since it sounds like you are keen on a retroboard. There are plenty of 1980s sails around for next to nothing anyway. Good Luck.

As an aside - Jomik please do not buy tie-on booms.

I'm pretty sure that I rocked in a chest harness like that one.
