Glued Minicell Seat Question

Like many of you, I use carved seats out of grey minicell foam in my plywood S&G kayaks, but I have never glued them in place because I have always been worried about mildew or worse growing between the foam and the epoxied plywood. Seems like there would be wet spots at the interface all the time.

I'd be interested in what others have experienced in this regard and what
suggestions you might have. I'd also be interested in whether velcro actually works over time; if so, how best to attach it.

Thanks,

Craig
