Maybe that explains what the homemade surfboard-type thingy is for that is up in our rafters. We purchased our little cabin on Rattlesnake a few years ago and up in the rafters is this huge yellow thing that looks like a homemade surfboard. It's about 10' long, 2.5' wide, and about 2 inches thick. It's hollow and has canvas stretched across the wood on what I suppose is the top. Never seen anything like it. Perhaps an attempt at a windsurfer or something to be pulled around by a boat?
