    Default Where to get an extra plug?

    Want to get an extra (probably 2) plug just in case I forget to put it in and then drop one in a panic. Have a 2009 21V - anyone got an online source to order such a part? I've done some google searching but not sure exactly what the part is called and not getting any success.

    you talking about a drain plug right? i picked up an extra at a local marine store, though it needs an O ring, and I believe people have posted something about them being 1/2" or 3/4" NPT.

    Here's one right on amazon:

    Skidim probably has them, or Bakes. Or you can just use the amazon link above.

    Yah the rear drain plug - the one you forget to put in and your boat sinks

    I'm 2 hours away from the nearest boat/marine store, so it's hard to shop. I'm not sure if threads are standard and mine has 0-ring which the one from amazon does not. I have zero interest in getting the wrong one and ending up with water coming in my boat ...

    Sent an email to skidim to see if they have one. thanks for that. If I get a link I'll post back.

    Go to you local hardware store. It's a bronze pipe plug. $3-$4

    Well we don't have any of those things on our boat .... and maybe I'm making this more complicated than it needs to be, but mine has an o-ring on it, so I don't think it's just a garden variety screw-on brass pipe plug.

    It is pap. NPT stands for national pipe threading and is universal. You can get o rings at any hardware store, lowes or HD or a mom-and-pop shop.

    Trust us on this!!

    You can also just get a rubber expansion plug. WalMarts in my area have them in the "boating" section behind automotive.
