[QUOTE="mbullen, post: 506835, member: 24594"] Closed cell foam boards won't hold water to begin with. Placing the boards so that the original hull channels will continue to offer drainage is key. Pour-in, two-part foam is a different animal and I would suggest avoiding that stuff. One could always take a few small pieces of your proposed material and do a little experimenting first. Submerge a piece for a while in a pan and see how it does. [/QUOTE]
