It doesn't feel like balsa. Seems more like a dense foam type product.
I just re-cored the swim platform that had balsa.

Could very well be foam. Some manufacturers did core with foam.

I would think balsa as well. The foam products used in that time were typically Airex or Klegecell. Airex was about that shade of color, but rarely used above the waterline as it was not real temperature stable. K-cell was various shades of green. There were other foam core products, but these were the 2 dominate that market around the end of the last century.

Looks like Airex that I had in a previous boat. Great stuff!
