buy that stuff that they are talking about in the daves rail post at the end of it....its white and really smooth, u can get it at home depot...i dont know if styraphome works better then barrels or what, id assume the styraphome would start to absorb the water a lot

i have a 20 foot round rail that works great but when going at riding speed its not long at all. i would personally make one side ride on and the other not, but as far as width a sheet of ply is 4 ft wide adn if u can get that to float properly that would be fine but it would be hard to get to float so 5ft wide seems better. i would go 20-25 ft long tho. what are u gna use for the surface?
