Insulating the hull questions.

[Hull376]

ebb,

Attached are some pics of the Plas-Tex installed over the Armacel and affixed to to the topsides inside my boat. I hadn't yet put the trim pieces on the exposed edges so you can see the insulation on the underside of the deck in the v berth. The panels fit OK between the stringers (just OK since the builders from Portugal didn't care much about straight lines along the stringers on my boat!!!) This setup really helped this summer, and, now that mold season is here, no sign of the black plant critters on the Plas tex stuff. I also included a shot of where I put a piece of the stuff on the board that goes from the berth to the sole. I always had trouble keeping paint clean and it got nicked up pretty easily there. Not so with this new material I'm trying out. Maybe get rid of paint brushes and paint cans if this works out.
