I'm not sure here, but i have no idea what grade you are getting of XPS.. And if you are paying 1-2 GBP, there is no way it is 1/4 the strength on H80. Do you mean 1/4 the strength of the PET?

And which grade of PET? Because they have some comparable to H80

And, I know we are kinda being informal, but by strength, you mean compressive strength, right?

I am using compressive strength, for the same reasons groper did in that boatdesign.net thread.

Now I am not sure that's right. But given all those disclosures...

Yes, Björn, i agree completely.
