So I've been fishing in my 14R trying to get the feel for it and everything is perfect so far, with one exception. I have a very slow leak from my drain plug.
The drain plug hole in the boat seems smooth, without any dents or imperfections in the aluminum that I can tell. I've tried two different 1" drain plugs so far and it still leaks. Not sure if I'm tightening it enough or not enough. I swear I've twisted it at least 10 -12 times to tighten it and she does not budge but she still has a slow leak. Then my OCD kicks in and it drives me crazy! LOL! I just want to fix it.
Not sure if I should try a 1 1/4" larger plug or do something else to the plugs I have that I may be missing. If anyone can shed some light on this, I'd appreciate it.
