Off Shore has addressed the issues stated previously in this thread. They redesigned the flag arm, and added more holes going up the side of the flag arm. The higher up on the arm you go the more tension you will have.
The Tattle Flag wire is now angled down towards the middle of the board, instead of straight to the back, to help keep the board more level when pulling deep diving cranks.
The weight can be moved forward or back for that reason too.
If you already have OST boards, you don't need to run out and buy new boards to achieve this. The older boards can work too. You would just need to buy the flag replacements...for the new design. The eyelet for the TTF wire can be moved down, by drilling a little hole where it shows in the picture I provided.
I run my Off Shore boards with the Snapper Release (OR-18) on the front arm, because they are easy to operate in the cold when my hands are frozen and stiff.... and an OR-16 on the back. That release has a pin in the center of the pad, and as along as you put the line behind the pin, you're never going to be chasing an escapee board.
I went back for one board this past season, and that was due to line breakage on a monster sheep head, not because the release let go.
Anyway, just thought I would let you know about the new features on the Off Shore boards, in case you hadn't heard about this yet.Captain Julia "Juls" Davis
