[QUOTE="onthewater102, post: 484708, member: 13702"] I poured foam between the ribs in my 16', but I lined the cavities with painter's plastic and put a round object along the center of the bottom of the cavity so water could still drain from the sides of the boat to the center. There are pictures on my build thread. If I were to do it again I'd rip a piece of PVC pipe down the centerline on my bandsaw and cut it to fit as a form for the lateral channel on the underside of the foam, it wouldn't stick up as high off the bottom of the boat as simply dropping a round section of pipe would, but that's just to get a bit more thickness in the foam board, I haven't had any issues with it.
