Stanleys Logo Library has alot more labels and though they share info with Board-N-Stoked their sites don't have all the same labels or version of one label or other so check them both out, glad you were able to find some stuff, I've looked up every board I can remember having!

The board could be from the Innerlight shop which started using the name well after the Cocoa Beach Seeker had closed. The original Seeker was formed by Mark Glasser, Mark Williams and Ken Jensen in 1968. The marriage of two garage operations, Mark2 and Jensen Surfboards. Ken was shaper and artist, Mark W shaper, sander, fin maker, and finish, Mark G laminator and glosser. The first retail shop was the little round building close to the Minuteman Cswy, replaced by condo. That place only held about 20 boards. When Mike Tabling moved his Weber shop from south Cocoa Beach Seeker move there, 1908 S. Orlando, The boards where also sold in Ft. Pierce, Daytona Beach, Jacsksonville, New Jersey and Long Island.
The wholesaling of boards did not go well and there were loses. When the Apollo mission at the cape ended, the local business dried up, operations where forced to close. Both Ken (in St. Augustine) and Mark W (in Melbourne) continued to produce garage built boards for some years to follow.
