Why not put down drainage tubes (PVC pipes cut half- round), lay down some
wood joists (or columns that would lock in to the foam) to screw the
floorboards to and use pour in foam. Great flotation, less work and
tremendous strength.


I don't understand, need to keep a space between the floor boards and
the hull while sailing to keep your feet dry. Boat will only drain
after it is out of the water or pumped out over the side. If I pour in
the foam without stringer type molds, the incoming water will be above
the floor boards. Did I misunderstand you?
