[QUOTE="fool4fish1226, post: 233124, member: 6845"] My only experiences with foam is the same as yours. I have always found it to be water logged. This is just my opinion on why this is, The boats that I have been around when this occurs is always boats in need of lots of TLC and have been sitting outside unprotected from the elements for years. No foam can take that type of abuse. As far as the research it is basicly the same as I stated above. Everything I read said something like 95%-98% closed cell not 100% so I feel protecting the boat keeping it covered and dry is the answer to water logged foam. The foam I used came from US Composites (on-line) and was 2lb [/QUOTE]
