gamecock Posted June 8, 2017 Report Share Posted June 8, 2017 Fished today with the family and somehow managed to lose one of the plugs for the live well. It's the black rubber plug with the loop at the top. I think my boys misplaced it when they were catching the leftover bait to turn loose. Probably blew out. Either way, where can I buy a replacement? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JEM Posted June 8, 2017 Report Share Posted June 8, 2017 Try Maverick Boat Company. I think they sell those things online in their Pathfinder "store." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smilemaker Posted June 9, 2017 Report Share Posted June 9, 2017 If you go to local big box store and go to plumbing you can get a 1 1/2 inch test plug. Change out the wing nut and bolt for stainless steel and you will have a plug that can be tightened and secure compared to standard black plug. Also a lot cheaper.

geeviam Posted June 9, 2017 Report Share Posted June 9, 2017 The plug from MBGgear would not seal the drain snug enough to keep my live-well really dry. This one is a little pricey, but works well: Shaw Plugs 52403 Xtreme Marine Expandable Neoprene Rubber Plug with Stainless Steel Handle and Hardware, 1-1/2" x 1-5/16" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heat the plug with a lighter or the like. It will soften the plug for a tighter fit and better seal. Works light a champ on my wells. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mtredfish Posted September 18, 2017 Report Share Posted September 18, 2017 You probably already found a solution...but this was $5.80 on amazon....just replace the nylon wing nut at your local hardware store...the screw is stainless https://www.amazon.com/Rubber-Winterizing-Expansion-Plug-Size/dp/B002XKFJTM/ref=sr_1_fkmr2_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1505776178&sr=8-2-fkmr2&keywords=1.5"+livewell+plug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
