It still weighs 300 pounds
In Response To: 300 pounds of concrete weighs less under water ()
It's just that the effect of that is offset by the water it displaces.
Most things settle in and are harder to move than their weight would indicate. Concrete blocks, brake drums and engine blocks soon get set in pretty well.
