What can I use to plug my self bail deck holes? They are about 2" in diameter. Regular plugs..even the larger ones done even come close to fitting the hole.

I'd like to be able to plug my holes when I want to from the inside.

Some hardware stores have plain generic black rubber plugs. I have bought some that big before.

When I say hardware stores I mean the big, well stocked, True Value or Ace. They seem to be falling to the wayside these days due to H.D. and Lowes.

Boatman1...

simple. When reverse achored in the wind, water comes in the deck. No big deal unless water temps are in the 40's...then it comes in real handy. wink

For those wondering why you would reverse anchor in the wind...it's much easier to fish multiple people off the bow.

Some Academy stores sell a package of plugs. They are tappered on one end to fit different size holes. My brother got some for his self bailing deck.
