pretty sure most predators work on contrast Digger, you might be worse off with the checkers.
From below, everything just looks dark anyway, it's the flashing of the lure that attracts the fish not the colour.

sprayed white, blue rails, blue bottom, families hand prints on deck. Due to the white base coat the blue has come out like dark denim and looks good.

Its 6'4 5/8 x 20 x 2 1/2

The final sand job could have been better, I have learnt heaps and realise I have to learn to final sand better and will look at how this can be acheived for my next board.

Because of my inability to complete tasks I have to now put this on the backburner and finish glassing my sons board. So the next sunny monday will be trying to do that and nothing else, plus cant wait to glass in the single fin.

I think the next few sunny mondays are booked out for me and hopefully they will be sunny, though the long forecast dont look to good for that this monday coming.

No more pics till I complete the boards, hopefully me and my boy can start test riding within 2 months, all depends on the weather.

Hope you like the photo
