After trips where the boat didn’t really have to deal with seas or spray except on the hull, I notice that there is about a quart and a half or a half gallon of salt water in the far after bilge area right where the pump sits. The mid bilge by the second pump is just a bit damp as though a little water may run in there when I come off plane.
I think the water is coming into the boat through the drain plug, which I haven’t touched when I pulled the boat out for the first time.
I am going to put the boat on its trailer and replace the brass screw-in drain plug, and I am asking if anyone else has experienced a similar situation.
Also—is the plug a standard 1inch diameter or two inch so I can have the right size plug ready to replace when she is on the hard—it looked like a one in her for my 2019 R27 Outboard.
Thank you in advance for any discussion or advice!
