I had mine 9 years and did tons to it, only to sell it and the guy call me 5 hours later to say he sunk it!! Forgot the plug!!
I was told in the beginning of the season that it was in a marina up near Boston, I wonder if it ever got used again??

Everytime I hear that i think "What a douche bag." It's one thing to forget the plug, but to actually sink it is ridiculous. Did you tell him the story about the 10 foot wave?

I never told the buyers when they came to look the story, afraid they would have said no deal.

Not only did he leave the plug out but he was driving around boston with 2 buddys when he called to ask should he be checking for something cause water was coming in?
I said itwas fine and did he put the plug in and he said it was finger tight. Called 4 times, the 3rd call was to say that the marina had put straps to hold it up between two slips while the haboer master was coming with a pump, the 4th call was to say that all went under water but now on the trailer draing the last of the water.
Plug was in the holder at top of transom, thyought that was were it belonged?? Said he must have miss understood him when I told him he needed a 9/16 wrench to put it in?

To think of all the rips and waves and slop that boat took me threw in 9 years and have a yahoo sink in in 5 hours
