Insulating the hold

My ice melts way too fast. What can I do about it?



Does anyone know who (business) insulates boats around Southeast? I have a 42' wood boat.



Spray in? Is there a need to glass over it? Who's best? What's the cost?



What do I need to know?



Thanks,



Jim

As I recall you should not insulate ton the inner skin of the fish hold or rot will be your fate - the system that seemed to be best was to build a insulated shell that allows air to move between it and skin then seal engine room and make it draw air around the shell that has been fibreglassed al though toughflex or something similar could be used - good luck Duwam Ray

Stop catching so many fish. Your ice lasts lots longer then.
