[QUOTE="willyok, post: 458040, member: 24086"] Well I started tearing the poured in foam out today, what a MESS. Im not sure if the install was factory but they really messed things up badly. A lot of the limber holes were sealed shut. This of course held salt water. I have found four additional holes. Im sure I will find more by the time I finish getting all the foam out and pressure wash it. I talked to the welder and he didnt seem too worried. He said just cut them out and make patches out of 5052. Is there any chemical that I can use to strip the oxidation from inside the boat? I also jacked the boat up and under the trailer bunk looks really good. I will post some updates tomorrow after my hired help (cant ask my friends to do strip foam) and I get all the foam torn out. Im thinking for re-assembly, sheet/block foam would be more ideal for the majority of the boat. Will [/QUOTE]
