Is any manufacturer selling a combo long board/paddle board? Seems you could use the same board for both, sail it when there's some wind, and paddle it when it's too light.

Years ago (1983) when I got into windsurfing, I started with a clasic Windsurfer long board, then got a shorter board (Aiken 911) once I learned how to water start. Sadly both boards are long gone (destroyed by my kids), I still have the masts/sails in the garage though.

I know the new boards are very light and carbon, so I would think there must be a long board that could double as a paddle board.
