askipper3,
Do not fill that livewell with foam. I had the same idea back in 89' when we 1st reworked our seacraft and it helped to rot out my transom.Over the years small amounts of water worked its way into the well and slowly the foam absorbs this moisture,over time you get a nice "crockpot" effect in summer heat and the wood slowly absorbs the moisture through the fiberglass well.
when we finally cut the old foam out it weighed a couple hundred pounds with all of the moisture.

What if you were to drill a hole in the bottom of the well...the water would go out if it gets in...it will be sealed though.

Also is the boat begins to sink water will come UP the hole...and lift th foam....rising the boat up. Right>
