Skin-on-Frame: Blue Sponsons

L.o. there!

I consider adding top floatation to my pseudoomiak's I-shaped gunwales.
Folding kayaks and dinghies feature such long, inflatable rubber sponsons which of course are a pain in the derrière to make.
I just would pick blue noodles were their floating power not too inferior to air in a comparable volume.
Empty plastic bottles don't fit easy there. Foam soaks.
Did any of you nabobs try that on your boat?

Hasta luego
