Does anyone know how to replace and find the supplies for the clear piece on the end of a manta? I broke it off up on a rock on lotw. here is a pic of my manta. Thanks!

I replaced one on a Hang 10 last season, a #14 lexan lip, (reg. manta= a #11) ('06 Rollie & Helens catalog) did the trick. I used epoxy and a small screw to set the lip. Manta works great. However before replacing lip I caught 6 fish in 2 weeks on it, then after the repaired the lip, 0 fish in 3 months. Maybe the smell of the epoxy held them back. Hope this helps. If you want get rid of it let me know.

I would think that River Run would probably send you a new tail if you called or emailed them. Then just epoxy and maybe a small screw should hold fairly well I would think.

I'll but your broken one if you want to get rid of it, Shipping chargers would be the "x" factor.
