Hi, was just wondering how much pourable foam I should order for my 16 foot long 79 inch wide 18 inch deep centerconsole.
An easier way to figure how much foam you need is figure the weight of your boat loaded and then divide those pounds by 60. One cubic foot of pourable foam will float 60 lbs.
Thanks jig,
So to verify...If my boat,fully loaded to its maximum capacity with fuel, passengers, gear, batteries, and engine weighs 2400#, I would need 40 cubic feet of foam?
Do I need to add any safety margin to that figure?
