    Whats goin on everyone,

    My uncle gave me this beauty a few weeks ago but I haven't been able to find anything online about it. He said he bought it back in the 70's but didn't know anything about it. Its a "zodiac" singlefin(removable) and the shape is called The Bert. Anyone know anything about it?

    Maybe something to do with Larry Bertlemann? We used to emulate his every move on land and sea.

    I had a Zodiac back in the early eighties. It was shaped in Belmar I think. Mine was a twin fin. The logo on that one doesn't look familiar though maybe a different Zodiac.

    Zodiac's were essentially Belmar NJ based. I believe the actual factory was by the Allaire airport. Ask Don at Eastern Lines.
