Using the 633 with T60 board, how's that combination? I'm going to move the foil back like 4 inches, with new holes. Anyone on the forum riding it like that? I have some inside info on how to do it the right way, thanks to alwayskiting. Moses USA. I look forward to the discussion on this matter. Thanks.

I think it will be really good, but dont have that very combo myself.
You are right it should be moved a tad back for neutral trim.
You could put your question up on the hydrofoil forum, as many foilers never go to this main forum nomore.
It is here:

last year I had my Moses T60 modified to take the 663 wingset, a custom shop cut out the hole plugs and inserted mast tracks instead, I had a look inside the board to see how the old holes were put in, very basic glass spools with drill holes through the center and not that well stuck to the boards skin,
2 of mine had come unstuck from the bottom skin and were letting in water, so the track replacement was done just in time before major soggy board syndrome kicked in.
the tracks works perfectly by the way for the t60 with the 633 wing.
the delaminated internal spools were caused by me ramming into sandbanks during my learning phase, not bad workmanship.

HI foiler alert.
I´m just in the same process. Holes are drilled and styrofoam is removed with an allen key. I put the holes back about 3,5 inches.
I thought about moving them further back, on the Moses T 38 board the holes for different mast positions are 4,5 inches apart..
This would put the holes right at the end of the stringer in the T 40, thought it would be a little more stable not too far back.
Now i just have to get some epoxy to fill it and redrill.
In the name of all Onda owning T40/T60 drillers: what´s the "inside info on how to do it the right way" ?

I used to ride it. It is good. Foil was mounted in the standard holes which were in the most rear. Worked well.
Thou I think the 633 and the T60 is too "clumsy" in combination. Pick a smaller board for such big wing.

The thing with the Allen key is the right way. Makes an epoxy plug. Thanks for all the answers! Looking forward to trying it.

If you drill 6,5 or 7 mm like the original Moses holes it´s a little easier to mount the mast, especially on the beach.

I would like to install mast tracks on my t60. Do you (or anyone else) have a link to where I can by them?
Do you have a measurement of the mast track mount position?
Cheers, thanks.
