: Which gives me a thought: why do you want the bulkhead in the first
: place? If you are just creating emergency buoynacy you can do it
: better by filling the volume with an expanding foam spray, sold
: at hardware stores for sealing cracks between walls and window
: or door frames.

Without a hatch the bulkhead has limited use agreed. For floatation floatbags work just fine.
