 Yes!  Mine ran from the forward corner seat back to about a foot from back ledge.  What I found out is that area was hollow.  I fixed mine with foam.  It was not a fun job, but what I did was to use 4lbs foam (suggest using the 8lbs because it will compress and I might have to go back in a year and fix a few spots)  and used a syringe and drilled many holes from underneath and injected the foam.  This is a messy job and you have to mask off the area and you can only mix a small amount of foam at a time because it kicks in about 45sec.  I must have mixed about 20 batches.  I did this about a year ago and it has held up great. 

Here is the link to the foam I used:

I found some at a hobby store.   What I did so I could keep using the same syringe was to flush it with acetone after each hole.  I did not think about the mixing gun.  The foam mixes at 1 to 1 so that should work.

These are similiar to the ones I used.  This one should work much better because the ones I used were only 20ml and this will allow you to a much bigger area at one time.

One other thing I did was not to drill all the holes at once.  I would drill two close together and then inject the foam and then hold my finger over the hole of the one I just injected.  This would force the foam to the next hole and spread out the foam.  When you use the higher lbs foam it does not expand fast.  At first I thought it would grow like that spray foam, but that was not the case. I would work this pattern from the back to the front and I tried to elevate the front of the boat up to help push the foam to the rear first.  My holes were maybe 3 to four inches apart.  If you go with the 60ml you would want to make you holes further.

< =text/>_popupControl(); .5 Cu. Ft should be enough.  I used the 4lb and had over half left.  The key is only mix enough to fit in one syringe shot.  You will not have time to get two shots before the foam kicks.  I used the small dixie cups and made marks to do my mixing.  You will have about 30 sec to mix and shoot so be ready.  After you shoot the foam then clean your syringe in Acetone so you can use it again.  After awhile your syringe will get harder to use because the acetone will take it toll.  So, make sure you have extras.

Good luck.  Email me if you want to give me a call and I will glad to help.
