Doesn’t Bob Eeg have these? Or at least the pattern? Why hasn’t anyone reached out to him directly? You used to be able to just order spare ones from him. He seems like he should be the first resource.

Dear Don, I am in Rathdrum Idaho. there is a guy in Bayview that has a 15. His name is Jeff Kuiper. I have his contact info and before you make one it might make sense to drop his, make a detailed pattern for all Monty 15 owners. I also know some divers that might be able to help find yours in the spring if you have a rough idea where you lost it. Eric

Here's a video of someone who made a replacement board. Not a lot of details given so you might want to contact the owner.

Still hoping I may find actual dimensions, but measuring the trunk is where i'll head. Be interred in a price for a finished new or used one. But alas I am a wood worker and that is my back up plan. Considered aluminum too, and potentially some sandwich construction.
Thanks for those comments. The average depth may be 40 ft but where I was, likely deeper. Light even in our crystal clear spirit lake only penetrates about 30 ft. And I really have no idea we're it actually came loose. I sailed likey several times without the rope. (It went first) So I thought I was ok till winter with it down. I started to notice horrible pointing. But it really wasn't till I got her out of the water that I knew what that bump really was.
