YES: YOU SHOULD!!!! I have a 2018 Windsport 29m. We had a 2017 Axis 25.2 and the engine cover got hot. We traded it after 9 months and the Windsport got hot at the end toward the back. I got some adhesive backed heat and sound insulating material. Covered the existing foam that was not very sturdy or effective. Ended up using all of the roll and put 3 layers inside the cover.

It made a big diff on the temp of the cover AND A BIG DIFF on the noise level. It's definitely worth the cost and time to do it!!
