The last one for the year came off the production line a few days ago. 6'9" * 21 * 2 5/8. This one was for a good friend - first commission - although it was done at cost Her husband and I made it for her birthday and she is one happy camper. I am hoping to make myself something similar next year when I am back and have had a few surfs on this one. Its based off a Joel Tudor Diamond Egg. Still a couple of hick ups with the glassing process but there has been a rapid improvement in technique (if I may say so myself) and consequently the result over the last few boards. Can not wait to start the next one - I might have recently received a voucher from the good lady for my birthday - a 10'4" blank with a big fat cedar stringer

Thanks fellas.....BS - I did not have any say in the colours on this one ! I am hoping to do a straight blue tint on the next one - similar to Simondo's preference. I brought a really nice container of blue tint and it looks unreal. Can not wait to play with it. Not thought about doing a solid block colour though. I used a block colour on the first one - but just the end section
