sxr 800 buoyancy fail

[djkorn1]

crazy...my SXR floated, but barely. I think my trinity is light enough that with foam in the back and stock sxr foam in the front it would float, but you never know.

stock pole would've kept it up for sure....I may add some foam to my pole somehow for extra buoyancy.

I'm thinking the same thing. I'm about to install a fixed X-Metal pole and I'm thinking I might slide a couple strips of pink foam up there.

If it's full of fuel, they sink. I;ll burn off most of the fuel before I need the bilge.
