Post oversized drain plugs
im having brother put oversized drain plugs in my boat. where the hell do you buy these things? ive been looking around on the internet and cant find any. do they make them in the "flip-lock" design or is it something different...hell ive never seen the oversized drains in person or in a picture.

I found a flip lock drain plug for my boat that was 1" 1/8 or 1" 1/4. I could not find 2" plugs either. Call Brother or Aucoin, I bet they know where to get them.

go to lowes or home depot or plumbing supply and get some pipe tester plugs...usually in the PVC section they got 1"-3"

Brother put mine in when he built my boat. I think one in the center of the transom is sufficient. You just need an big adjustable wrench on hand to put it in and out.

the ones i seen people use down here are just a steel cap that threads on, like the end of a pipe bomb

I think Brother put in threaded 2" pipe for the drain plugs right? If I remember right, you can just get 2" pvc cleanout plugs and screw in there. but I agree with Willett... my 2" drain holes aren't threaded. I found some plugs at Lowe's in the plumbing department that have a wing nut on them, and they're expandable. no need for threads or wrenches.

The ones Brother put in my skiff were 2 in. threaded pipe collars with plugs. Get him to put an extra in your driver box. You can use the standard plugs or the ones from lowes or these.
