[QUOTE="Douglasdzaster, post: 496143, member: 27803"] I just put the same pink foam board in mine while I’m rebuilding. The ribs in my 16/52 are 2” so I used 2” foam board and epoxy treated 15/32 plywood then used snaps to install carpet. This way I can take it apart whenever I want to clean and inspect. You’re right about it being solid. That was almost 2 months ago and I haven’t made it to the water yet but I’ve been walking and crawling around on it doing other work. My rear bench is hallowed and I built three seats with cushions across the top and had foam left so I put it down and painted some extra plywood I had. Now I have floatation in my storage as well. I wished I would have used vinyl instead of marine carpet but I had the carpet on had I had bought cheap. [/QUOTE]
