The floor liner and side sponsons of the Sportspal canoe are key elements to its design. They add lightweight buoyancy and act as sound deadening and protection against wear. Depending on usage and storage (indoors or outside) they will wear down, compress, and lose some of their porousness. Luckily Sportspal canoes are completely serviceable, with almost every part in it available from the manufacturer. In this video I replace the foam floor liner and side sponsons, which after ten years of frequent usage (30+ trips per year) were showing serious wear and tear. This was my first time doing it, and while the process is reasonably straightforward, I ran into a few hiccups and learned some things that I'd like to share with you.
