Where do the drain plugs go in on a MAX II

[thebuggyman1]

If you was using the same plugs that i put in this thread they can't come out unless they was not put in right to start with ,,(very easy to use) the cap plugs that come with the Max II and Max IV are very good at keeping out water but when they are taken out they are very rarely good enough to put back in .So thats where the Bait Plugs come in ,,when put in and the screw is turned -> to your right ,,2 full turns and then the latch flipped up or down or side ways it does not mater witch way you flip it. It will lock that plug in for good until you unlock that latch and turn it to your left 2 full turns ,,and then and only then it will come out . lol

In his defence, I have mangled that type of plug also. It all depends on the terain you are running in. If the brush/rocks/thick weeds or other obsticles you are running over scrape against them they will smash the levers and possibly rip them out.

I was going over redbrush in my buddys marsh this fall and had a caplug get ripped out,and almost sank my max.You have to watch them I guess no matter what you use.

some folks hate these, but I like them. As long as you remember to screw them in. They take a lot of abuse, and really don't stick out far. I silicone and rivet mine in.



They can be found just about anywhere on-line. Just google "Kayak Drain Plug".

Mike, as a boater, when I needed plugs I thought of and installed that type in my wolf. Honestly, I'm gonna probably remove it and fill in the hole, it doesn't drain all the way, because of the "tube" of the plate the plugs threads into, that stickes out on the inside of the tub, plus the fact it has to be put up to the flat back of the tub. (I am going to try cutting a hole flush with the tub on the bottom of that tube, should still seal but maybe drain the last bit out too?) I think I'll put the bait well plugs in, but from the inside, little tougher to get too but wont get snagged. As long as I dont back one into a rock and push it out Guess there's no perfect plug, pick your poison.
