Shearwater 17 hybrid foot braces

I am well down the track with my build - about to fibreglass the deck, and just noticed that no foot braces have come with my kit. The kit dealer in Australia has gone bust since I purchased it.

I know I can order something directly from CLC n the US, but my question to the group - are there any other creative ways to add foot braces?  I was thinking about building some small wooden blocks to glue in, or use some hard foam attached from the front bulkhead - anything to give a solid footing for each foot without having any screw go through the hull. 

thanks in advance.

RE: Shearwater 17 hybrid foot braces

Here's one option for alternate footbraces - uses minicel foam.
