[QUOTE="TriBull, post: 502050, member: 32176"] Attached are a couple pics that highlight the importance of floatation foam on small tin boats! This young man floated for two days off the coast of St Augustine, Florida. Stung by jelly fish, severe sunburn and circling sharks, he survived because the boat’s flotation foam was intact and he had the presence of mind to shed the motor and all other weight from the boat after being swamped by waves. For those with old tin boats or doing restorations, make sure you keep the flotation foam top of mind… [/QUOTE]
