Mistral Superlight II centerboard gasket. Does anyone have a suggestion of where to get one? I got my last one from Calema and I may do that again. But I am wondering if there is another source for these. I feel like the last one didn't last as long as it should have. Or is time passing more quickly than I think? I replaced the last one when we went into covid isolation and has now fallen apart. ... haha just kidding - it was older than that.
Any suggestions or hacks appreciated.

There may be other hacks that the local longboard crew knows. In the meantime, if you aren't planing, it won't matter. If you are planing, just wear goggles! (Water shots up out of the slot like a jet)
I have one
Well, I could have saved myself some typing...
Thanks, gentlemen! I'm not a fan of the jet action.
Buy Gorilla Clear tape. Double one side up with half piece in the center upside down. Stick to the board and rub it down then slice down the center using a straight edge. This tape works great for water use
