[QUOTE="Ranchero50, post: 324669, member: 1523"] From your description it appears that your batteries have been overcharging for a long time and the juice was soaked into the foam and has slowly eaten the aluminum away at a drip or rub spot. I'd suspect that when the hull got some water in it that it leached the acid out of the foam and that's what made the big mess. Per the corrosion, I'd attack it now and fix it vs. run the risk of hitting something where the metal is weaker and having a very bad trip. [/QUOTE]
