[QUOTE="thill, post: 377636, member: 4972"] Even if the foam doesn't meet the requirements listed above, it is allowable 4" off the lowest point on the floor. So filling your benches with foam is still do-able. In a boat I recently took apart, the styrofoam was wrapped tightly in what appeared to be Saran-wrap. It was an old boat, and it looked original. I wonder if that wrapping was to make it water and gas-proof, according to the guidelines posted above? Whatever the case, it was NOT waterlogged, was NOT all disintegrated into little balls, and was obviously still very buoyant A great idea, in my opinion. -TH [/QUOTE]
