    I Think you mean use the gluvit if its your boat. If your selling it and it don't leak than save the money.

    I use .100. It works fine for these smaller boats. It’s just shy of 1/8”

    New to this... Does the foam just add rigidity to the floor? Or is there a different purpose?

  • @backwaterboatrehab
    @backwaterboatrehab2 күн бұрын

    Main purpose of the foam is to aid in floatation in case you get a hole in your boat. This way it won’t sink to the bottom of the lake. You boat comes from the factory with foam under the seats, but when you start adding a lot of extra stuff to your boat you can exceed the factory foam limits. So adding foam will help compensate adding extra weight. But it does also serve the purpose of filling the void between the braces when you floor a boat.

    Check boat speed with a handheld gps unit on ground speed. You will find that the speedometer is wrong.

    The 9.9 is better than swapping carbs to make it a 15hp You’ll have more gas mileage keeping It a 9.9 You’ll use more fuel and still run the same speed !

    This was a great watch..Those of us who love to do DYI projects eat this stuff up. Last winter I bought a 12 ft tracker put a Merc 9.9 and a trolling motor. Down on the southern Colorado River water has become to skinny to run my Lund most days. So, built what I call..The Swamp Donkey. I still have tweaks because of all the noise the aluminum makes in the water. Drives me insane, but it'll get dealt with. Keep em coming. Stay safe
