[QUOTE="Ranchero50, post: 213478, member: 1523"] Go foam or noodles but try to avoid putting it within 4" of the bottom of the hull. One because it will absorb oil water and fuel spills causing it to become heavy or flamable and two because when you do need it having too much foam in the bottom tends to cause the boat to flip over. I'm going to use the noodles, figuring out how much 12" of noodle will hold up and go from there. I'll put standoffs to keep the noodles from getting near the floor as well. Probably strap them to the bottom of the deck framework up front. Jamie [/QUOTE]
