Floatation Foam Removal | Aluminum Boat Renovation | Episode 3: Foam For Days

[@skipwaelty3974]

Just opened up my 17' Princecraft deep V to replace some soft flooring and found saturated foam insulation. After seeing your weight comparison I see no choice but to remove and replace. Thanks for the video. (I think)

It’s a mess and tedious but certainly worth it. Good luck!

Hi, my grandpa's old aluminum fishing boat was left outside, uncovered, through all 4 Michigan seasons for about 15 years. The wood is in surprisingly good shape, but I'm replacing it anyway because although it is not completely rotted, it is water logged. How can I tell if I need to replace the foam?

Drain Spade Shovel. That’s the trick. Still a lot of work.

How’s the finished project?

Replace with XPS foam (Lowes) cut to size. This will allow you to install drainage channels.

Polystyrene is not fuel resistant. Not a good choice. Polyethylene or EVA foam. Basically waterproof for life and chemical resistant.

Acting possibly theater? Most people stumble on the word “ umm “ you started out strong. 1/2 way started doing it. Oh well hang in there.
