Advice please. I have a newly refurbished 13' orkney style spinner, great boat mainly used for fishing. I am in the process of kitting it out. It has two bungs either side of the keel inside on the hull, about midway, both are plastic and the thread insert protrudes so not easy for water to drain. It also means I have to get under the boat and screw the bungs in each trip. It is not a great concern as will never ship much water (only use on the none tidal Thames), however they would be handy for swilling/washing the boat out. My idea is to replace these with stainless bungs but insert from the inside, that way they will be flush with the hull inside and make it easier to screw the bungs in and flsuh water out.
Does anyone see a problem with this. Sorry to be so nurdy just like to get things right so worth checking with experts.
I am obliged for any comments.
