I just picked up a new boat project and i`ve taken out the flooring.The carpet and wood were trashed. I sometimes can`t believe people just let things get destroyed ( lucky for us Tin Boaters i guess) . I`ve taken out the foam as about 1"-2" is waterlogged . The foam came out relatively easy as 1 or 2 large pieces. Is there any way of drying out this foam as i would like to reuse it because it has the right bottom countour and floor height/support when i put in the new wood.
Its sitting in the garage right now and is draining some. I`ve thought about cutting off the waterlogged part and just using some flat foam in place of the removed part, but i don`t know if it will come out to the correct height and stability of the original . I have the whole winter to let it sit as i can`t seal the inside of the boat until it warms up again. Any thoughts?
