We were looking at getting one of those Zup boards but wanted to know if it would fit in ski storage compartment in the center floor area. We are 45min from the boat and can’t take the measurement until the weekend. Not concerned about the length, just the width and depth. Anyone know or can conveniently measure?

Thanks for your help!

I don't think it would fit....I'd be more concerned about the angling needed to get it into the locker so be careful with the measurements....your best bet would be to actually try and fit it in there!

Our kneeboard fits at an angle with a little room to spare. And it's one of those super thick and crappy beginner boards.

I am able to fit two adult wakebaords and a hyperlite landlocked surfboard (69 inches long by 20 inches wide) in my ski locker at the same time. 2016 242 LS

Thank you for your replies. I went ahead and ordered it. I’ll report back one way or the other once I get it.

What is price on zup? I think my son is close. He rode in front of me on surfboard last night like a knee board going slow behind the boat.

I got the ZUP You Got This 2.0 Board Handle Combo - on amazon for $331. Includes their tow rope. Hopefully we'll get to try it this weekend.
