[QUOTE="Hanr3, post: 403287, member: 1055"] Time to get some of the wiring, plumbing, and loose foam in place. Misspoke before, all the plumbing wasn't done in the previous post. All of the loose foam that came out of the boat went back, plus I added about 3/4 of a 1" thick sheet of closed cell foam. I managed to box off areas behind the aft live-well and aft anchor compartment. In the back there is a splash well, under the splash well on both side where the deck area is has been closed off and filled with foam for flotation. I also added a bunch of flotation under the nose of the bow, in front of the bow storage compartment. Hard to explain, but imagine everywhere not in use is foam except a drain channel under the below deck storage area. This way any water that gets in the boat will still flow to the rear and get sucked out by the bilge pump.

Still need hatches, but otherwise its good to go. [/QUOTE]
