Jerry,
I would avoid the fiberglass insulation, it will get into everything. Small specks of glass will blow around in the motor compartment, it will get into the cabin, and you guys will have the equivalent of "itching powder" all over the boat.
Personally, I don't think insulation works on a boat. We have not had any condensation in ours summer or winter, because we ventilate the boat in the summer, and keep heat on in the winter. Somehow it works for us, and we have zero mildew, and this is in Alabama where it gets very humid in the summertime.
I have found little need for acoustic insulation, because the exhaust note is so pronounced there is no point in trying to isolate the motor noise, which is generally unnoticed. My advice is to save your energy and money for something else.
