When I was a little girl my dad made me a paddleboard from plywood. I only remember paddling on it in the back bay at Alamitos Bay in Long Beach. It was painted bright red. It must have been pretty heavy made out of hollow plywood, not like the modern ones. But he was a great dad that made me lots of things like a sled that would run so fast it was scary. – Margy
