    The foam was the big thing to me because it was easier to form to the 
shape of the deck than wood and easier on the gelcoat if it moves around at 
all. If I was using wood, I wouldn't need the CDs. 
    The shock cord was a bit hard. I used one piece made into 2 loops with 
hooks on them and carved the foam so the stuff would lie flat in the foam and 
then glued the cord into the foam before mounting the compass. So far, so 
good.
