Re: [BlindHandyMan] all bunged up
Dale, What Clifford is likely talking about are plugs that are used in storage compartments that are used to hold items that you may want to keep cool. My boat has two of these compartments under the two front seats and we would usually use one to store beverages for our boat outing; after loading up the compartment with beer and soda pop I'd dump a bag of ice over the top and close the seat over the compartment. The compartments have drain holes for getting rid of the water, I always had referred to the plugs for these holes as "drain plugs" but I do believe they are what you are looking for.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] all bunged up
Dear Dale: One more note, the two plugs I have are different in that one has a handle that screws in to expand the plug but it also flips ninety degrees to suddenly lock it tight. The second plug has a simple small tee handle in the center which is used to tighten or loosen the plug. These are available at any marine dealer or supply.

Dear Dale: You might try heating up the metal around the whole, which in turn will heat the rubber and hopefully, you will get a softer rubber plug which will yield to your pressure to remove it. I have a couple of rubber plugs which are around one inch in diameter, which were used in boats which I owned in the past. Those plugs should work well for this application, if I understand how it is set up. Yours Truly, Clifford Wilson [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
