Just a heads up, fiberglass resin and modern cores will still let light
through, particularly if the sun is horizontal to the hull side. Even with a
hull liner. On the Mantas we use black gel coat on the inside of the hull
before we put the liner on, just to stop light transmission, and that's with a
3/4" core and 3408 triax lam on either side!
