They actually belong to my fishing partner. He got rid of his boat years ago and had them lying around. When I got back into fishing he told me to keep them on by boat and use them. They are old but in very good shape. They do collapse / fold up and make them easier to store. Not sure even if you can still buy them. But there has to be more around. Try to Google them. Sorry that's all the info that I have. I'll try digging them and see if there is more info on them.

Inlines certainly have their time and place, but I agree BIG boards are the way to go, especially when pulling line-sets with lots of water resistance.
If you want "big boards" and don't want to make your own, take a look at those made by Amish Outfitters. You can run multiples of anything (i.e., leadcores, large-jets, dipsys, coppers, etc.) off them with little drop back, in any wave conditions.

I have used many "big" board varieties over the years (singles/doubles/triples; wood/metal/composites; single/double keel Otter Boats) both homemade and store bought, and the Amish Outfitter Boards are hands down the best i've seen or used.
Be careful however, they may pull too hard for your setup. Both the "wood" and "plastic versions pull HARD, the "plastics" pull harder. I have a pair of the "plastic" boards and sometimes I think they could pull my t-top off the boat

$350.00 is pretty pricey for a set of boards imo.
