[QUOTE="bassboy1, post: 49357, member: 55"] Wrong. It is closed cell. Basically the same stuff as the two part foam that was originally poured in your boat, but not cost effective if comparing it to the gallons that you mix. I wouldn't waste the money for marine grade, unless you are building wooden hulls out of it, and I have plans for some of those in the future, and still probably won't waste the money on it. The cabinet grade plywood available at Lowes and Home Depot should be the most cost effective. We just bought a couple sheets of that to make the stringers on the canvas kayaks we are going to be building soon. The last kayak dad made lasted 20 years before he sold it, and it only used sheathing grade. I would just coat a plywood deck in spar varnish when I install it, if I ever went the plywood route (aluminum is oh so much more better. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: ) [/QUOTE]
