It's truly a PITA. I wouldn't wish that on anyone.

If you are gonna just yank it, then run a chain down the ID to an eyebolt stuck through a steel pipe cap that fits over the hose end on the inside. Mix in an A-frame and a chain hoist and hope nothing else gets ripped out with it. Something will give but it might pick the hull up a bit first so be careful. Tie a string to it before you pull it so you can get the new one in easier.

I have access to an elegant Yale forklift. She can lift 1600 lb rolls of cahhhpet, so I have the powah. Now I need to find a brain.

Is there such a thing as a flexible tip for a pressure washer? Since foam is the enemy, this is where I am focusing my thought.

Maybe u could spray a chemical on the foam to dissolve it away from the hose

Dangerous as always. Be a small miracle if I don't blow myself to Pluto.
