Since the varmint thread has gone by, maybe we can get a daily play by play on how the drain plug battle goes.

Thanks I'll let you guys know how it works out. The day I got the boat (last month) I tyed taking it out without a
Any luck. The boats been on the water since, but it's due for a good scrubbing so ill get to try thing out once she's out.

A couple of taps with a hammer and it comes right out.

The socket pushes evenly around the edge of the plug.
