[QUOTE="mbullen, post: 498421, member: 24594"] Once upon a time, in the 10-15 year post-war history of aluminum boats, drain plugs were actually optional. Type, style, and even which side of the boat you wanted one installed were squares to tick at the dealership. This particular one, with the upstream skirt on the boat's floor was considered a "wet transom" plug that functioned as a bilge pump while underway. Many times, even the plug size and pitch were products of year-to-year evolution. Aftermarket companies such as Attwood, Perko, or Jervis could also upgrade your set-up with quarter-turn spring-loaded versions.
