Default Re: Tell me what you think.....

I thought of one other thing last night that the foam may do for our tanks. I mentioned shock absorption above, but also what about evenly distributing the pressures of side-to-side and back-and-forth motion when running in waves? I'm not sure how you plan to attach your tank to the platform, but I assume manufacturers use foam to spread horizontal and vertical pressure evenly around large areas of the tank from pounding through waves or over bumps on a trailer. I should note, however, that I am talking out of my a$$ since I am not a naval architect or an engineer.

Could you fill the area above your platform with foam?
