Quane Surfboards
circa 1960
Christchurch, South Island, New Zealand.
Dennis Quane
Henry Marfleet wrote, March 2007:
"I have an early spoon, shaper is Duane." (sic)
Henry contributed the template and decal images.
See  Williamson(2000): 
Surfing in New Zealand, 1950 -1970 

Henry contacted Quane Surfboards and Dennis replied:
 "... it was probably made around 66 - 68. 
We only made 3 or 4 of these, they were copied of photo of George  Grenoughs kneeboard., he was 


starting to play with these designs in Queensland about this time.
The board was made in our Redcliffs factory, designed and made by Dave Poyner and myself.
Dave was my main shaper at this stage.
Not many of these around today, real collectors piece.
Great to hear from you.
Regards
Denis Quane"
