Question:
Good Morning On those extruded Foam Kayak blocks with the internal T shape form, are there any blocks that are just rectangular w/o the extrusions available? I have a situation where I could use the material, but no contours and just solid. Thanks

Hi Frank,
Each of the foam kayak blocks like the Malone Foam Block for Kayaks and Stand-Up Paddleboards # MPG172 do have some sort of cut out as they're meant to go around crossbars from a roof rack.
There is one type of block that doesn't have a full cut out, just a small one in the middle, the Malone Foam Spacer Blocks for SUPs and Surfboards # MPG176.
This is meant as a spacer instead of a carrier which is why it doesn't have a large cutout, and it'd be the closest option to what you're looking for.
