[QUOTE="xXT.WARDXx, post: 302411, member: 10980"] does the insulation foam help? I have read that only the foam from the seats helps it stay afloat and the rest want do anything for it. I just wondered about how true that was. Well keep it from being totally lost if it was to sink i guess i should say other than keep afloat. I think for the wood im going to get regular plywood and put 3 coats of spar urethane on it. Im going tomorrow to look around and get prices on everything. Probably will take me a couple months to do it all because of my stupid city boat registering. I have to wait till june 30 to buy the license for my city for one year or if i buy it now i have to buy it again on june 30 because that would be when it would expire. It's stupid i think if i have the boat registration and everything for the state i should just be able to fish anywhere in the state. It the same for fishing license too. I have to buy one for the state and then one for my city so i can fish here. Wooo. Venting over now :) [/QUOTE]
