SeaKayakNE Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 I'm trying to find mini cell foam to foam out my bulkhead and remove the foot pegs. Anyone know where I can find mini cell foam locally? I live in Billerica. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Katherine Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 Hi, I found a great guy in Stoneham, unfortunately I don't remember or have any contact info. I found him through Google Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Sylvester Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 Three inch might be fine if you put a small cant in the foam. Do you want the foam to match your foot angle for most support? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeaKayakNE Posted September 1, 2016 Author Share Posted September 1, 2016 Yesterday I decided to take block of foam I had for the roof rack and put it in front of a block of 3 inch mini cell I ordered online. Surprisingly the foam roof block is supper comfortable the Engels feels great on my ankles and because it's v'd it gives me plenty of room to stretch.

Phil Allen Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 I don't think you commonly find more than 3" thick foam, though I know that's cut down from bigger buns. If you need thicker, you can always resort to glueing blocks together with contact cement. Being a very short legged person, my 3" ethafoam is backed up by several inches of 1" pink house insulating foam board. Kinda nice if you want someone else to try your boat as its early adjusted by pulling out the 1" blocks. best Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also good for adjusting between summer paddling (less clothing bulk) and winter paddling (more clothing bulk) if you are into that kind of thing.
