Question

Which way does boat drain plug install?

Answer 1

From the inside if you can get to it>Outside things can snag on it and remove it while in the water>

Answer 2

I put my plug in from the outside, and turn the s***w thingy to the right to tighten it.  If you have the kind with a ring that folds down, best put it on the inside.

Answer 3

s***w in plugs should be put in from the outside of the boat.  Expansion plugs can be put in ether way, but I put them in from the outside.  When I pull the boat at a ramp, it's easier to get to, without climbing back into the boat.  Just pay attention to make sure it's secure.

Answer 4

Yeah, drain plugs (any type) are best installed from the outside of the boat. It's easier to get to once you've pulled your boat out of the water and you sure don't wanna take it out while your boat is in the water.

Answer 5

What?  What type of garboard plug, s***w in, or thermos cork style?  s***w in goes in from the outside, use teflon tape and just snug it up.  Cork style, either inny or outy, it's bi.  Make sure it doesn't leak!

Answer 6

Down?  

Ok, from the inside of the boat down.  Righty Tighty, Lefty Loosey.
