Ted and Web Gang:
I did not use a drain plug during my first few outings on my HMS-18, and never
had any water coming through the cockpit drain in calm or choppy conditions.
However, I noticed that during launching, when the boat slid backwards from
the trailer to the water, that some water did come through. I have plugged
the opening with a wine bottle cork and it seems to work just fine.
