I have been doing some work on my boat and have noticed a lot of foam in the stern/transom behind the corner sections. I can only fit two fuel tanks in the back and removing the foam will alow a lot more room. Any suggestions

The amount you mention should make little difference. None if you don't try to sink your boat LOL

Well here's the thing Capt. The foam is there so that hopefully, in the event of a total swamping, that your boat ends up like this:

as opposed to sinking like a rock to the bottom of the lake. However, the area where you are describing your problem foam doesn't sound like a place where Starcraft typically put it? Got any pics? Most of us have just packed as much as we can under the deck. I did leave space in mine for a rod locker.
