Sound Dampening Idea (maybe)

I may insulate the entire compartment under the clean outbtray hatch but if i do it wont be until the next off season. Access to that area is tight and removing and reinstalling the plumbing is easier said than done.
 
Started taking out the waterbox to work on aerator ballast pump install, the hoses are very difficult to get off the water box FYI.
Still considering insulating the waterbox while out of the boat, I have some knukoncept knoknoise I am considering wrapping the waterbox with.

Anybody insulate a waterbox before??? Ideas, suggestions???

Also gonna add product on inside of hull where exhaust exits, and in are where swim deck extends out from boat.

Started new thread for insulating waterbox.

No suggestions on the install on the water boxes themselves i do wonder how hot they get, if at all. Fyi - liquid dish soap will make reassembling the plumbing / rubber cuffs a lot easier.
 
thanks ronnie, was hoping to get some tricks for those hoses.
