Moeller 1/2 Inch Brass Garboard Drain Plug Kit
Moeller 1/2 Inch Brass Garboard Drain Plug Kit — Product description
The Moeller Garboard Drain Plug Kit is the 1/2 inch brass fitting at the lowest point of your transom that drains the bilge the moment you pull the plug. Solid brass, so it shrugs off corrosion and the constant wet-dry cycle of launching and trailering. The right part when your old garboard plug is corroded, cross-threaded, or missing.
The Moeller Garboard Drain Plug Kit is the brass fitting that lives at the lowest point of your transom and lets the bilge drain out the second you pull the plug. It's a 1/2 inch kit, so it fits the standard garboard opening on most aluminum and fiberglass hulls. If the old plug is corroded, cross-threaded, or just plain missing, this is the part you're after.
Brass is the right material here. It won't rust like a plated steel plug, and it handles the constant wet-dry cycle of launching and trailering without seizing up. It threads into the standard garboard opening and seals the bilge so water stays out while you're running.
Thread it in before you launch, back it out when the boat's on the trailer, and let the bilge drain dry between trips. Simple part, but it's the one that keeps water where it belongs. Keep a spare aboard. You'll be glad you did the first time one walks off.

Frequently asked questions
Where does a garboard drain plug go on my boat?
At the lowest point of the transom, right at the bilge, so water runs out when you pull the plug. It's the drain you open on the trailer and close before you launch.
What size is this plug?
It's a 1/2 inch garboard plug kit, which matches the standard garboard opening on most small to mid-size boats.
Why brass instead of a cheaper plug?
Brass shrugs off corrosion and the constant wet-dry cycle. A plated steel plug tends to rust and seize, and then you're fighting it every launch. Brass threads out clean season after season.
Can I use this to replace a corroded or missing garboard plug?
Yep, that's exactly what it's for. If your old one is cross-threaded, pitted, or gone, this is the standard 1/2 inch replacement.
