[QUOTE="russ010, post: 81817, member: 677"] That foam has nothing to do with it floating while you're in it.... it's for when your boat flips over - it keeps it from sinking! I took the foam out of my middle bench and made it all storage... and I have no problems with my boat. One thing to think about if you take the seat out completely is the purpose of bracing that it may serve to the sides of your boat. Unless you have ribs that run far up the sides, and a lot of them, I wouldn't suggest taking out the whole seat unles you plan on using some other type of brace or support to span the width of the boat.
