[QUOTE="jbp84, post: 251361, member: 5019"] what if you have water logged foam in a tin boat. i just bought a 1432 lowe i found three pinholes in the back of the boat near the transom in randoms spots on the bottom of the hull. tonight i flipped the hull on its side drilled the holes out some when the bit went up in the hole i noticed the foam looked more like sludge. i just patched the holes with marine jb welded so we could fish out of it this weekend the biggest issue is from the factory both sides of the foam are wrapped with tin and are not just pop rivets they have washers on the back side so my sheetmetal tools are limited to tear it apart and put it back like it was.
