...always check the bail plug three times
said Huck


My new boat has three drain plugs!

Does that mean I have to check nine times?


YES!!!

That was one of the big problems with my tunnel hull. The Baker had three
drain pugs, and two livewell over flows at the back of the boat. The
livewell over flows were the same size as the drains, and yes I
accidentally
put the plug in one of the livewell drains a couple times. Thanks
gfoodness
for three automatic bilge pumps. One in each section.


Yeah, my Cat is set up similarly, but luckily the drain plugs are screw-in
types, and the drains are totally different, so it will be impossible to mix
the two.

My friend Gil has a Cobra boat and because of a back injury, he has a hard
time getting down low enough to see where he's putting the drain plug. I
can't tell you how many times he's launched his boat with the plug in the
livewell drain!
