1989 Ranger 350V - flotation foam

[4stringbass]

I am in the process of restoring a '89 Ranger 350V and have not been able to find any kind of information on what density foam to use in the stringer boxes and below the deck. I tried calling the manufacturer and no luck there. Anyone here have this information?

2lb foam is typical for most boats

4stringbass.....does your '89 Ranger have wooden stringers and transom? Not sure when they went to all composite.....thanks.

2# for pure flotation
4# for structure
