Description
“9’ 10” Uncle Buck”
Hobie Surfboard designed by Bucky Barry
One of Laguna Beach's beloved sons, Hobart “Hobie” Alter dreamed of never having to wear hard-soled shoes, and in living a clean, ocean oriented lifestyle. Inclined towards creation and a love of surfing, he established Hobie Surfboards in 1954, and realized his dream. In Dana Point, Hobie Surfboards quickly became an industry leader, cultivating a reputation for craftsmanship, innovation, quality, and inspired performance. Beyond surfboards, Alter continued to reinvent what would become action sports by pushing the design of many contemporary inventions; such as the Hobie Catamaran. Today, 64 years later, we’re still here, making hand-shaped surfboards the way Hobie envisioned. His legacy lives on in every surfboard we make. You can depend on the quality and craftsmanship that he demanded. That's our guarantee to you.

Special Instructions
Winning bidders receive an email on Friday, January 2 from the resort's secure digital credit card authorization site, with a request to submit credit card information for their winning surfboard. Once payment is processed, the resort will email the winner a payment receipt and a donation receipt.
Boards will be available for pick-up and shipping beginning Monday, January 5, 2026. Boards must be picked up no later than Saturday, January 31, 2026.
Kindly note, that packing, shipping, and handling are not included - winning bidders are responsible for pick up and/or shipment of their board, including costs to package/ship. Boards can be picked up at The Ritz-Carlton, Laguna Niguel or the purchaser can arrange for shipping. If shipped, we often work with a local UPS in Dana Point as the carrier. They have years of experience packaging/shipping our surfboards and do a wonderful job. Before you bid, you may inquire with our UPS Partner at (949) 248-9150 ext.0 to get a quote of how much shipping to your address will cost, as price varies due to location. If you arrange shipment with our UPS partner, we will handle the pick-up arrangement with them but will need to know your shipping address and phone number. They will be in touch directly to confirm packaging/shipment costs. The resort does not manage this. If you prefer to use a different carrier, you will need to arrange pick up directly with the carrier from the resort and next steps.
