[QUOTE="Lowe 2070 CC, post: 399425, member: 9081"] flotation foam is what keeps the boat from sinking in the event it gets swamped or otherwise filled with water. it's a safety feature ensuring that you will have something to hang onto in an emergency as well as something for rescuers to look for. removing it means your boat will sink if it takes on enough water. Commercial boats may be manufactured without flotation. Pleasure boats are required to have it. Personally I would replace it if at all possible. [/QUOTE]
