Fastjeff - they are called "duckbill" drains and the PWC people sell them. In my days of marathon racing in Europe (40 years back) we used them with great success. They last about 30 hours. They fit into a std drainplug tube.

Thanks, but what do you mean by "They last about 30 hours (short lived)?

Jeff, they loose their water-tightness over the season, but then, anything which survives 30 hrs of racing abuse is rather long-lived.

Now that I know what they are called, I did some research and agree that they are not for me; I have a boat, not a submarine!
