The newer models built after 1977 also have a higher coaming due to the newer style cap, thus supplying more freeboard. My '85 model has 26" from the deck to the top of the gunnels. Not sure what pre-78 models have???
Also, the only foam I could find in mine was around the factory fuel tank which caused it to rot out beyond belief.
