it is the simple things that often go awry:
tried to put in the garboard drain on my 2002 282 sailfish but it only goes in (by hand) half way then gets extremely tough and won't turn even with a wrench;
trying to remember if this is normal (for the plug to stay in half-way -- my guess is that it is not) and i do not want to strip the threads;
seems the threads on the plug are ok and as far as i can see the threads on the inside are ok so what gives?....possibly bottom paint on the drain threads?
anybody have a suggestion?
