    I had to laugh at myself this morning. Half way to the reefs jammin along without a care in the world then I notice water coming up through my rear floor caps. As I kneeled down to get a better look what do you think i saw right below the now rising water......Yep the freaking plug!!! I felt 15 again.

    I hope you got the plug in and pump turned on in time.

      DON'T FORGET THE PLUG!! Hope you were able to get it bailed out via bilge.

      We all get in a hurry at the ramp it happens.

      I tend to always stop before the ramp and get everything ready so all I have to do is back the boat in, tie it up & park the truck.

          That's how you're always supposed to do it.

                I was going very slow surveying the area. I beached it and jumped out and plugged it. My hull was full but the bilge did its job.

                    Aaaah...I had it happen, with a twist...I accidently knocked the t handle off the plug and the boat filled through a what was the equivalent of a pee hole. Lesson learned...always carry a spare...or two!

                            I'm always second guessing myself on this...even if I know I put the plug in I'm still thinking..."Did I screw the plug in?"
