Abstract An Eccentric rotational Cam Toolless Fin System The present invention relates to a toolless fin mount assembly for a surface water sports board . The invention is useful for all water sports boards including, but not limited to surfboards,standup paddle boards and windsurfing boards kite surfing boards .The invention can also be used for attachment of fins to other removable fin applications such as underwater devices and watercrafts. The existing fins/fin systems do not sufficiently deal with the user friendly method of removing the fin from the fin box cavity leading to the possibility of injuring yourself in the process of removing the fin. The fins also are not properly secure and often fall out and our lost. An eccentric cam can be positioned to the side ,rear or front of the internal fin cavity of the fin plug. When the cam is turned into the lock position this creates a lateral force to firmly hold the fin base in place when turned and it is engaged with the eccentric cam .The eccentric cam mechanism comprises of a lid that lifts up so that it can be easily turned. The Lid can then be clipped down and held in place via a pip lock once the cam is engaged with fin base.
