I am looking for some information regarding a set of fins. They are SportsWays - Navy Fins. I want to know things like their vintage, information on manufacturer, etc. DSCI0048.jpgDSCI0043.jpgDSCI0046.jpg
they are a rip off of the Voit UDT (aka DuckFoot). The Voit fins have been around since the '50s or maybe the '60. They predate the Beauchat Jet Fin by many years. I believe Voit still makes them, but I recall there are some other aftermarket guys making them with different rubber compounds. I very little about Sportways
Took a little digging but the Navy was introduced in 62, kept in the line for 63 then slightly modfied and renamed the Orca in 64. If you would like to see the catalogs go to Vintage Double Hose, click on the "Manual & Catalogs" button then work your way to the Sportways catalogs.
