[QUOTE="Joseph Delgado Sr., post: 387358, member: 17886"] Ahoy Cajun, IMHO, Johnny has given you a solid two centavo deal. If you decide to vacate the cavity, at least relocate the flotation material, and more certainly would be wise if you are adding weight. In an ideal world the flotation would be perfectly balanced fore and aft, in such a way that the boat (even when swamped), will maintain high and even sides. Of course this only works in a perfect world, but it does give an indication of buoyancy even when flooded. This is an awesome safety feature designed to make the difference when things go wrong. So, my tally is, you have Dos Centavos kindly given from Johnny, and now i throw my hat in with him, giving you a total of 4 centavos. :-) [/QUOTE]
