    I am rebuilding my 28 ft cabin cruiser. Currently working on the interior restoration, and looking to insulate the gunwales and, or interior walls. I was thinking to insulate the back of the cabin walls so that the hull would be the same temp, as water/air ambient. Using a thermos for analogy, to prevent condensation on the inner hulls. Is this correct or do I need to insulate the inner hull.
