Found this info on another site and thought it may be useful for rafts, or insulation.
Cheers

This information was supplied by Mike "Warp".

Many thanks Mike.

Austal Instullation in Malaga Has heaps of "Skins" that range from 15mm - 40mm thick and about 4 odd metres long by 1.5 metres wide that they will literally throw at you if you roll up with a trailer and pick some up.

1 Denninup way Malaga

if you call Jenny on 92494022 she can point you in the right direction, otherwise they may have a deal for you for stuff that is already 50mm thick but you'de have to pay for that stuff.

Liquid nails works well to stick the layers together of the skins, buy the cheapest possible and make sure it is ok for polystyrene as some eat it rather than stick it.

Liquid nails does not work long term with contact with water..but the price is good :)

I found this on a perth based aquarium forum, so think that they'd use it for putting under new fish tanks, so not sure how it would go in AP coz not sure exactly what its been used for. But it may be worth checking out anyway :)
