"Yours does not appear to be a flood resistant safe"

Actually, it is. The documentation stated that it would withstand a few feet of water for a few hours. The manual read that if enough water was around it, it could float and tip over, and because of this they recommended bolting it to the floor.

Well then you definitely want to use the bolts just to plug up the holes, if anything. No sense spending a couple hundred dollars more for the flood gasket if you leave 4 open holes on the bottom of the safe.
