Foam cored dark decks are even worse... you can leave permanent foot prints in them. BTW,
epoxy weakens quite a bit with heat...so much so that most manufacturers of
epoxy resin tell you not to
paint the parts dark colors if they're going to be used in sunlight. Dark colors can also cause the resin to post-cure and leave the fiberglass cloth printing through.

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.
