I'm not to sure of East coast distances and how getting around with Covid works right now, but there is this for a board.
2019 Fanatic Sky Wing 5-4
www.standupzone.com
This might be worth it if shipping isn't to much. Could be worth an email. The nice thing about this is that's a huge wing that will get you up in tiny 1 foot East coast waves, then in a few months or a year you can just buy the new GoFoil wings like the NL190 and you're already in an system that is expandable.
Selling my gofoil hydrofoil setup complete with Maliko front and tail wing with a 24" (60cm) mast...

If you want to go new and Axis you can go with this setup I recently switched to. Axis is fully interchangeable, comes out with new wings often and is pretty future proof.
Build your foil the way you want! You can now custom build your S Series Foil in any configuration possible! Make sure to select Carbon, Aluminum 19mm or Aluminum 16mm when it comes to your masts, mounting plates and Mast Adapters if necessary. We will contact you if there are any items that are...

S-series front wing - 900mm +$533 (the 910 is the newer version and slightly more, I haven't ridden it, but reviews say they're very very similar, so I saved some money here)
S-Series rear wing- 370mm (the 390 get's good reviews too, I haven't ridden it) +$185
S-Series Fuselage- Ultra Short S-Series Fuselabe +$267
Aluminum mast length 16mm- 75cm +$108
Fuselage/mast adapter- 16mm +$74
Mast plate 16mm- 16mm +$109
screws/tefGel- $56
Total $1332.
Lol Takuma has a new foil coming out very soon so the current Lol Takuma series is on sale some places. It's supposed to be real good. The 1600 would be an amazing pump wing and tiny wave wing. For slightly bigger waves like waist high or more you'd probably want the 1300 which is supposed to turn really well and still pump quite well.
https://chinooksailing.com/collections/takuma-foils/products/lol-profoil-lb-ac-complete?variant=31733853356087 That's not a sale price, but it's somewhere I found it in stock.
Then there's Signature/Unifoil which I've never ridden but all the instagram influencers love (they get them for free) and the good foiler's I know who ride them say they're fast and light.
MFC is super light and very high performance, but not a learning foil and they should be releasing a new design next year.
The new cloud9 F series looks really good in the water. Full carbon setup.
https://cloud9surffoils.com/collections/all-products/products/copy-of-full-carbon-foil-package-carbon-mast-carbon-fuselage-carbon-wings?variant=31707687747678 Probably the f32 size for small East Coast waves. $1799.
Lift is solid and their new high aspect is supposed to be an amazing pump wing for downwind.
Armstrong is the rolls royce of the foiling world currently. Really smooth foils, great connections, cost a ton.
It sort of comes down to, Aluminum setup $1300+. Carbon setup $1700+.
Boards: You want a "track/plate mount" those terms are interchangeable depending on brand it seems. Basically 2 big fin boxes which allow you to move the foil forward or back to dial in lift. You do not want "tuttle mount". That's why I've never used GoFoil, they default their masts to tuttle mount and you need a plate mount adapter.
I can't really help to much here. I've been using my original board for over 2 years now. You can watch @usedfoils on instagram, I think he's based out of San Diego though and the boards on there are still over $700. Mackite might have sales on production boards, but I've never used any of those brands. You could try messaging @the.progression.project on instagram. He has a really good podcast you should definitely listen to (just the foiling series, not the original SUP series). He also shapes boards and might get you a good deal.
Edit: I forgot one option.
https://www.mackiteboarding.com/2019-neil-pryde-glide-foil-set/ Buy the XL in that set. $1149. That's supposed to be a real solid system to learn on. Then in 6 months or a year get the new front wings (not out yet) for it which look real good.
