Morrelli & Melvin Enters the Stand-Up Paddleboard Market Working with Industry Leader, Boardworks Surf.
Boardworks is proud to announce 2 new SUP Race boards designed by Morrelli and Melvin, The 12’6 M&M Zoom and the 14’0 M&M Zoom Zoom.
We are really excited to have chance to collaborate with Morrelli and Melvin in this venture” says Boardworks owner Mike Fox. “There really is no one more respected in the yachting world for designing really, really fast racing hulls.” Their engineering has been part of the winning 2010 and 1988 America’s Cup yachts, Round the World and Transatlantic records, numerous World and Continental championships, and multiple industry awards. “What they have to offer the SUP Race category will inspire the next generation of race board design.”
“I must say that the board shape alone has caused a lot of interest”, commented Bob Rief. “The ‘wave penetrator’ nose looks like it was downloaded from The America’s Cup ‘Oracle’. What is very unique about this design is that there is no deceleration when the nose hits oncoming waves; the bow slices right through the water and rises back up. See the interview with Pete Melvin on our website or the Morrelli and Melvin website….pretty amazing.”
The M&M boards are available now by special order through Boardworks Surf. The 12’6 sells for $2000 and the 14’0 is $2200. Contact us through the website www.boardworkssup.com or call 760-722-8536 for more information.
