Default Re: Bellyup SeaCraft in Fort Lauderdale

Ha Edloh;

I understand you concerns and motivation on Foam as a secondary protection in the possibilities of sinking, but foam does hold water and salt water against the hull will cause blistering in the glass. I personally don’t like foam because of the potential blistering problem that can – will occur. I prefer all the safety equipment, two batteries, and two working bilge pumps and little or no foam. I was in the Coast Guard back in the late 60 & early 70 and went out on plenty of rescue missions. That being said I am all for personal safety but I also am for keeping my boat right and foam for me is not a great option.
