Hi Brett,
I hope your shoulder is doing OK. I still have your place in Knox, IN as a source for closed cell foam but I would have to stop and make my kayak roof racks to carry back the foam. I think I remember you saying you might glue foam inside your kayak for floation. I think the attention one may get over these boats will be gratifying but maybe we should print out a paper to pass around to answer questions. I know I will have Nick's kayak forum.com address on such a paper and perhaps Nick can get some extra sales from it. I owe him that much. Take care,

John
