This post is for everyone out there that has done mods like fish finder installs and had to move or take out the foam blocks.
While it's nice to have the location diagram, it doesn't relate the "How" to get them back in.
Some are also different sizes. There are also four mystery white rectangular blocks of foam that are not even in the diagram.
Not sure where they even go.
Legend has it, Hobie Customer Service say's "There are no tips or tricks" to getting them back in.
After struggling for two days, I can tell you from experience there are a few huge tips.
#1. Put the Kayak in the sun for about 30 mins. ( It expands the plastic and will make your install much easier)
#2. I made a pool noodle jack to gently lift the deck up to get the blocks back where the belong.
Those two tips alone will save you a few headaches
Hope this helps anyone struggling with these wonderful foam blocks!
