I want to check if I can find some thin hull carpet at the marine
supply places, and I'm leaning towards wrapping the foam. ie cut large
and tucked around the hidden side.

I am not going to glue the foam onto the roof, I dropped that idea,
rather I think I am going to try and have it removable. Fellow
listmember Steve is doing similar thing, and has been a source of good
ideas.

I'll post what happens :)
