Nice vid...Philip quad forward! It's almost like the whole thing didn't happen that way...but it could.
Check this pic. Two door convertable. One board, three sails, and he scored the unknowns of central WA two days ago. Hahahahahahaa! Dig it.

Well, I went for the Odyssey Touring and it is sweet! The ride is so much more comfortable than the 99 Dodge, plus the features are awesome and the mileage will save me some bucks on the long rides I do. F*@k, now I have to download all of my music to the hard drive!!!

Yup, that's a beaut.
You can cut the nose off your old boards, make them all around 230 cms, and you're set.
Hope you got a good one. My bud from SantaRosa got a lemon Odessy, 3rd tranny in 120,000 miles, auto.

I broke it in last weekend with the left, center 2nd row seats removed and the front console removed. Had three boards, six sails, two booms, and six masts along with the wetsuits, coolers, gear and the significant other. There was room to breathe for her in the 2nd row seat left in so she could watch some DVDs and adjust the temp to her satisfaction.
I got my first scratch and spilled some coffee so it is now broken in.
The wind was SW 20-25MPH so all is good.
It has given me the impetus to re-evaluate my situation. Shorter boards are now my new venture and will be taking the longer, older boards to leave down in Florida for winter sessions.
Here's a stock pic. Black Beauty indeed! (for those Les Paul Fans).
GLTA!

That was a recognized problem in the Odysseys through at least the mid-00s. The solution applies to every automatic transmission in every vehicle: CHANGE ALL THE AT FLUID MUCH MORE OFTEN THAN MFRS TELL US TO. I've changed mine in every vehicle every 20-30K miles, and never had a problem even after 250k miles ... and that was on one of the crappiest ATs ever made (my AT shop owner spoke of my success at a national AT convention ... to disbelief.)
