Sea-Dog Nylon Garboard Drain and Plug
Sea-Dog Nylon Garboard Drain and Plug — Product description
The Sea-Dog garboard drain and plug is the simple fitting that lets you drain the bilge when your boat's on the trailer. Nylon body, a 2-3/16 inch flange, an integral 1-1/8 inch acetyl drain tube, and a built-in O-ring that seals tight. Corrosion-proof and ready to install.
Every boat needs a way to drain the water that collects in the bilge, and the Sea-Dog garboard drain and plug is the simple, reliable fitting that does it. It mounts down at the garboard, the lowest point of the transom, so when you pull the plug on the trailer the water runs right out. Screw the plug back in before you launch and you're sealed up tight.
The body is nylon with a 2-3/16 inch flange, and it carries an integral 1-1/8 inch acetyl drain tube that passes through the transom. There's an O-ring built right into the plug, so you get a clean seal without fussing with extra gaskets or thread tape. Nylon and acetyl don't corrode, so it holds up in salt water and fresh water season after season.
It's a small part that matters. A seized or leaking drain plug is the kind of headache nobody wants at the ramp, and this one just works. Keep a spare in the glovebox and you'll never be stuck.

Frequently asked questions
What is a garboard drain used for?
It sits at the garboard, the lowest point of the transom, so you can drain rainwater and bilge water out of the boat while it's on the trailer or stored on the hard. Pull the plug to drain, screw it back in before you launch.
What is this drain plug made of?
The body and flange are nylon, the drain tube is acetyl, and there's an O-ring integrated into the plug for the seal. All of it is corrosion-proof, so it works in both salt water and fresh water.
What size is the flange and drain tube?
The flange measures 2-3/16 inch in diameter and the integral drain tube is 1-1/8 inch. The tube passes through the transom and the flange seats against the outside of the hull.
Do I need thread tape or a separate gasket to seal it?
No. The O-ring is built right into the plug, so it seals against the drain tube on its own. You just thread the plug in by hand and snug it down.
