[QUOTE="speo, post: 410812, member: 20658"] In my boat, it looks like each bench was split in 3 and the previous owner gave me only 2 pieces of styrofoam for each bench - the port and starboard ones, for each bench. I am wondering, did one of the previous owners removed the center pieces, or maybe each bench was empty in the middle from the factory? I will post tomorrow a picture with the foam in the right place. My foam is white, not closed cell, and some doesn't seem to trustworthy. When I got it, last year, it was heavy, full of water, but it dried out now. The plan is to buy the blue foam boards this week and start cutting :) I want to install new foam, I will not keep any of the old white foam. [/QUOTE]
