My 1976 Hobie 16 had blocks of styrofoam built into it from the factory, plus it was made with fiberglass / foam sandwich construction. My Prindle 18 hulls contain no foam and I think it is solid fiberglass construction. The only hope for flotation with the Prindle would be if the bow or stern is pointed up to trap some air.
