The blue is a little better than the pink, but they're both closed cell foam.The white tube looks like the water pressure tube to your speedometer to me, and yes it would leak water into the boat whenever the boat was under power.The hull rivets aren't as bad as you might think. For as many as you may have to take out you can replace them with the heavy duty closed end blind rivets like in this video:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L0MA1-5NXjs&feature=relatedIt's an easy one man installation, and if you're going to put down the Nautolex vinyl you should rivet your decking down anyway and will need the heavy duty rivet setting tool to do that too.</blockquote>
