[QUOTE="richg99, post: 228223, member: 4376"] I am not sure that simply leaving the plug out will do enough, but it wouldn't hurt to try. If you want to experiment a little...if you have a transducer or other device already screwed into the transom, pull the screws and see if you get any flow. You can patch the holes with 3M5200 and not have to worry about future leakage. I suspect, though, that you will have to drill holes all of the way through the double sided transom ...to the foam.... to get any real value out of the tilt method. The fiberglass transoms were drilled all of the way through to the foam...so the drainage water had a simple route to follow. Rich [/QUOTE]
