my first attempt at the 11.5 just got the top on today ready to start shaping in the morning. I didnt want to bore you with pics of the guts they are pretty much generic,they only thing i did differant was add 6 suport strips .5 in wide 3 on each side of the skin across the beam it made the the skins easier to handle by myself and probably helped stop seperation when i glued the skins on i just left space for the spine and plced them between the ribs. It has been a great learning experience I used pochote and laurel(dark) lots of nice wood here in costa rica the board wieghs 33 pounds as it is feels like more. I also added addition support for the laurel strips crossing the beam
