If so, and I’m not saying it is, then there will be a few marina employees on the hook for some serious damages. Sump pump might be able to keep up with the plug, but someone would have had to have pulled them when putting the boat in the water, or the sinking would have happened earlier.
I’ve forgotten the plug a time or two - the result is pulling it back out of the water, letting it drain, and then putting the plug in. Easily noticed if you launch it yourself.
I would doubt that it could have happened to more than a small handful of boats regardless.
Just get moving, water will be sucked out. Does require someone jumping in to put the plug in after it drains.
Don't ask how I know this.
Rumor only, has it at over 25 boat plugs pulled.
A lawyer pal suggested frogmen. Was he joking?
Perps can’t afford to get caught, so we wait for camera shots of perps of suspicious unknowns, but no images may mean snorkled perps.
My only boat is a kayak, and I definitely would notice if water was coming in. Which is why it’s about all the boat I can handle ;-)
Okay, Google has some stories up, saying 4 boats sank, some crashed into rocks and multiple distress calls were made, due to high wakes occurring.
Not a word about plugs being pulled.
I’ll kill the double digits rumor.
