[QUOTE="JMichael, post: 239098, member: 7544"] My Fisher Marine has ribs on 22" centers (20¼" between ribs) filled flush to the top of the ribs with foam. I was surprised to see that the aluminum on top was only .036 (surprised enough to use calipers haha). So If your packing the space between ribs with foam, you can get away with some pretty thin stuff. 1/16th would be overkill based on what the manufacturer used. [/QUOTE]
