Default foam filling

Is there a place where boats can have foam injected into the hull for added floatation?

Default RE: foam filling

Not sure if there's a place that'll do it for you, I'm sure there is, somewhere. But, you can do it yourself. Do a google search (boat floatation foam), you'll find a ton of info and distributers. You'll want a Polyurethane Foam that is closed cell. Closed cell does not absorb water. They make both spray in and pourable. If you do it yourself just make sure to get equal amounts on each side of the boat and measure your amounts twice and take expansion into account. It's pretty easy, just follow directions to a T.
