So I recently had to remove the floor in my VLX Malibu to fix a leaking ballast tank. After another WakeWorlder posted photos of a bare hull being built we got the idea to add some extra ballast! It seemed like Malibu used alot of valuble real estate to add foam! I understand this is to keep the boat from sinking all the way to the bottom of the lake, but I decided if she goes down I don't want her back. So we decided to remove all this foam and add more hidden ballast tanks. Everything went pretty smoothly...

We marked where we wanted to make the cut in the floor to acess this hidden ballast storage area.

We cut and removed the carpet. Hopefully we can reuse this for the access door!

We the cut out the rectangle door to access the foam! And we found alot of foam!

Then came the problem... How do we remove all this foam? This was Gary's idea?

I tried using a screw driver, then settled on a tile trowel. There's got to be a better way? Do you guys have any ideas? How do I get rid of all this foam?
