[QUOTE="Analog Kid, post: 353280, member: 13940"] Even if the water is contained in the foam inside the liner separate from the hull the water is still in your boat making it quite a bit heavier. I would gut out all the foam and just re pour new foam. After it sets it will have the same structural effect as the original soggy foam. As for sealing the hull underneath the foam you could use steel flex or gluvit. Where I live in Florida boating season never ends but if the boat will be sitting idle for the winter you could do it then but working with foam and epoxy paint in cold weather lengthens dry time and slows down foam expansion [/QUOTE]
