[QUOTE="FerrisBueller, post: 330159, member: 11145"] Plain and simple, buy the 1" or so foam sheets from HD or Lowes and cut it to fit. The foam is there to stop your boat from sinking to the bottom once you have already capsized or taken on too much water to bail out. I think at that point you have more issues to worry about than what foam you used, in my opinion. If you take it out when modifying, try your best to replace it somewhere as much as possible, under flooring is a common spot. Probably more times that not we take out more than we put back, but I think there's some wiggle room, and more importantly we need to make sure we don't put ourselves in situations that would put the foam to the test.
