I glassed a laser printed sheet into the hull inside the rear cargo area (visible thru a removed hatch cover) with credit to Nick for hull design and to the origial artist of my petroglyph art and to the original designer of my retractable rudder. It also has the Guillemot double specs and a materials list (types of wood, brand of Epoxy, # layers, weight and type of glass), and of course, my name, and dates of construction.

The paper didn't really turn transparent, but I didn't expect it to either. I guess i could have put a HIN there but I've never heard of such a thing out here in Hawaii. No registration or any other bueracracy (spelling?)
