With a crack like that refoaming is the only option. Just think if you sink the ski and with all that water in the tray it might just sink. just remove the entire tray and to remove all the foam pressure washer does wonders http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b266/MDCDCCFan/Ski/PC120183.jpg?t=1208719321

Don't even try to dig at it. Thats a waste of time use either a wire wheel or if you have a high pressure power washer that does wonders too
so i told the guy helping me with the specifics on my motor what i was doing to the tray, he said i was effin psycho and all you guys are crazy. LoL
thought i would share, i thought it was pretty funny. he insisted the foam would dry if i used a hair dryer in the crack. . :/

He obviously doesn't know chit about anything.
Best solution when dealing with those types is to :chairshot:
Sounds like he avoids really fixing things...and just covers them up. Sit and spin. there you go, have nice day. What gives the jet ski industry a bad name is yahoos like that guy. Better get Team Scream to build you a motor. :brap:

My SXI seems to have some soggy foam from some where.
Barring any catastrophes, I'm gonna run it heavy till the fall... then I'm ripping the tray out and going foamless

i heard of filling it up with ping pong balls once and just putting a drain in it. would that work or have too much space between the balls?

the balls would be strickly for flotation no strength at all. I'm going to make stringers from Balsa wood and wrap them in fiberglass to support the tray
olympia, little trek from where you are unfortunatly. wouldn't mind having a brain to pick. :drive:
i think i saw that on mythbusters, trying to raise the sunk ship. think it worked, you try it first then i promise i will do it! :sneaky:
well this is my only ski, so if it's done then it's definatly a possibility. dont have any vacation time either, so would only be there for the weekend.
