How much?

Post by Izak »

Howdy!

I was wondering how much foam i need to outfit a C1? (dagger ego)


If Im only going to make a saddle and maybe knee pads ?

Just a rough estimate... I'll play with the saddle sizing as I go along.

Alright well thank's in advance and Happy New Year to all of ya with lots of time on the water! :D

3&1/2 sq ft of 3" thick foam if you're doing a bulkhead and small saddle

5 sq ft if you're doing a bulkhead and full length saddle.

If you're going for just kneecups instead of a full bulkhead you can take about 2sqft off either of those; I'd recomend making a full length saddle that's shaped to hold your knees and thighs out if you're not using a bulkhead.
