Abstract

A fin assembly for a board is disclosed. The fin assembly includes a fixing element and a fin. The fixing element, which is adapted to be embedded into a lower surface of the board, includes a fixing cavity extending into the fixing element, at least one projection located inside the fixing cavity and extending upwardly from the fixing element towards an opening of the cavity, and a fixing member received by the fixing element and engageable with the projection. The fin is attachable to the board and has an end surface that is located adjacent to the lower surface of the board when the fin is attached top the board. A fixing formation, which projects from the end surface of the fin, is adapted to be received within the fixing cavity. The fixing formation includes a free end and at least one tapered recessed portion located between the free end and the end surface of the fin. When the fixing formation is received within the fixing cavity, the fixing member may urge the projection against the recessed portion to thereby secure the fin to the board.
