Re: Is this a bad plan?
I forgot to pull my plug last fall and I was out tinkering one day and bent down behind the boat to pet the cat and noticed it was still in. I pulled it out, and watched water streaming out for about 10 minutes. That would be when I realized I had a tear in my cover. Having too much faith in a $150.00 cover could cost you thousands. In my case, thankfully, nothing was ruined, but lesson learned and now the plug comes out when the transom saver goes back on right after putting the boat back on the trailer.
...so I say, BAD PLAN! Take out the plug every time.
...by the way, here in Oregon I believe we will be going to the same rule as Minnesota due to invasive species problems. One of the beauties of this state is there are so many rivers, lakes, streams, of course the ocean, etc., so close together...makes it easy to forget you could be accidentally transporting something you don't want to be!
