[QUOTE="Jinxd12, post: 506139, member: 25542"] My boat didnt have any foam in the floors. Only along the sides and in the front. All 3 sections had foam inside of the aluminum sheet framing. Personal opinion is, if it hasn't sunk in 40 or so years with what's in it originally, original design is good. All of the sections with foam were not down to the floor, so water couldn't pool and cause deterioration to hull/foam. Also where the foam is located up the sides putting additional foam in the floor may change the way it would float in the event it was to capsize? I don't, I am not an engineer! [/QUOTE]
