Scrap the foam…
We just got back from the place that had the foam sheets and the stuff looked suspect at best. No labels anywhere to be found and beat all to heck made us decline this one. The plywood is marked plainly and we trust our source for that so we’re building out of BS1088 ply as previously planned. This will also prevent any more delays and have us cutting out bulkheads this weekend, cuts down on fiberglass work too. We have a local source for the plywood and I think we will be using them instead of shipping it from Florida ourselves. This will be easier to manage, as we won’t have to store anything while we cut out parts since space is at a prime around the shop. I mentioned earlier that we would get the ply from Bateau and if I didn’t have a local source I still would but buying local is something we always promote.
