[QUOTE="gatorglenn, post: 426346, member: 20097"] I've got it 06 Tracker then I'm going to re-carpet sometime when it warms up a little bit LOL. I plan on taking the foam out of those back to big sponson fenders on each side of the bilge hatch. I'm going to cut pool noodles, to go in there wired together in a bundle so that they're sitting up off the floor and have airspace between the walls. This will let all the water drained out of the boat and still have flotation if it's swamps. The problem with the closed cell foam. Is that manufactures shoot it in with pressure to an area that is sealed off therefore water that gets in around it cannot get out that's why over time it will degrade and hold water. Foam that has ventilation around it Will not degrade overtime because it's not saturated constantly. There isn't anything better than a pool noodle they sit outside for many years in the sun in the weather and they still float and I never Degrade and hold water. if you push one under how hard is it pushing back to come back up.
