Those that know me or have seen my kayak over the past 2 years have seen the Yak Chum name on my Cuda 14. This adds a personal touch like most boat captains. Both as an online screen name and a VHF radio handle. The New Cuda will have a new design. I have been looking through thousands of font types online and man there are so many cool ones! Being that my new Cuda is bright yellow/green/black im thinking of having the decal color be purple.

This is what happens during the long winters that are tough to get out and fish. I do enjoy making my own graphics as well!

Nothing lasts forever. The stock tank well bungee is falling apart. The sun and weather degrades the bungee over time. In turn the degrading of the bungee made it become very loose and fragile. Purchased a piece of green shock cord/bungee last year but finally got around to getting it on the Cuda 14 this weekend. Although the green I ordered came in as yellow I didn’t mind at all.  Actually it looks really cool!

I originally purchased 10′ of the bungee shock cord. Used about a foot and a half for my crate project last year.  What i had left was just enough to replace the tank well bungee. I would recommend that you purchase 10 feet for the Cuda. This way you can cut off any excess.  Being that it looks really cool on my next boat i will have to find 3/16″ bungee for the bow in yellow!.

I have to say it does add character.

I do hope it holds up well.

Yep time to retire the good ol’ Bio-hazard Cuda I have been fishing out of the past 2 years. Going to miss that boat. Haven’t decided to keep it or sell it. There’s just a lot of rigging that has to go with the boat there.

So i may just keep it for a season as my spare boat. Or just sell it in the early spring.

Anyway to the left here is my custom color combination! I hope the factory can get the black on the sides in the bow areas there. That will really make the Yak Chum logo pop! This custom color comes from Jackson’s brand new standard color called Green Hornet. The standard Green Hornet color consists of Neon Green Black and Blue mix.  My custom only replaces the blue with yellow.

Was going to order the standard color since it looks awesome but as i was playing in Photoshop to the left here is what happened. To the right here is the original Green Hornet Color which is also awesome!!

Anyway i am looking forward to the new boat. I will post the rigging ideas and projects for all of my readers asap.

The new boat will be rigged with Yak Attack, RAM Mounts, and Yak Gear!
