[QUOTE="reedjj, post: 198720, member: 4585"] The pink stuff from HD is closed cell. If you can stack them 2 high between the ribs they should be just about even with the tops of the ribs. The foam will support wood, aluminum, or whatever you choose to use for flooring between the ribs. Plus it will keep the boat quiet and absorb vibration. I used 15/32nds Plywood and its just right. Not as thin as 1/4" and not as heavy and hard to work with as the 3/4". Just right! Make sure to seal the plywood with spar urethane. I used the minwax "helmsman" spray cans. 3 coats, paying special attention to the edges and places where cuts were made. I then put one more coat on once everything was assembled. Then a couple coats of OD green paint. [/QUOTE]
