    I didn't think it possible for the new camera person to top a car sinking their first time out. Now two drain plugs? Can't wait to see what they capture next. Thanks BG, WB for the entertainment your videos really make me miss living on the coast

      The strap not allowing the boat off the trailer is what they noticed. They didn't realize the plug was missing until he went to take the strap off. Watch the guy going to the back of the boat to remove the strap. He reaches for the strap then does a double take and looks again and finally realizes the plug is missing.

    I almost sunk my first boat. 17 and took my dad out, forgot the drain plug, launched, loaded up and took off. About 20 feet out realized the boat was sinking. Had a very quick conversation about go back to dock, or get boat up on plane and run water out... Decided on the latter and gunned it out of the no wake area. It took forever to get up on plane and we both thought it wasn't going to catch up, but it finally did and disaster was diverted. Im quite confident we came literally as close as possible to sinking a boat without actually doing it. Prelaunch invasive species inspections have made this a lot less common and once you do it, you learn to double and triple check. Also used to see a bunch of people launch with transom straps still on, but preinspections have mostly taken this fun away as well.

    I'm guessing a lot of new boaters since Covid started. People getting out on the water for the first time to avoid crowds. Boating is not for everyone. I am a proud member of the Drain Plug Mafia and let me tell you, that is a scary thing to realize once you are out on the water and your engine dies. Happened my first season, was pulling a tube with the kids on it, and I was like "dang, those kids got heavy!" Then the engine sputtered, I have an inboard, and I realized what was going on. Jumped off the back of the boat and stuffed the plug in and let the bilge pump catch up. Got the heart rate up a little.

    I’ll never forget the time a friend was taking about 5-6 of us out on his boat. I towed it to a lake 2 hours away, only to discover it had a blown motor. Not a little outboard motor, we’re talking a 460 that was customized. He had let a coworker borrow it and the guy apparently blew up the motor and didn’t say anything. Talk about killing the mood. Why the guy didn’t start it before we towed it 2 hours away is beyond me.

    From personal experience. Dad would either fall in the lake, or sink the boat. Worst case of which was this one:
    Dad forgot to put the plug in the 14 ft Sears runabout with a 45 Sears engine. Took it around to the marina, and tied it up. We all went in and had lunch. Went out to the boat and all that was above water was the... it's hard to describe, blue part. The hull was white, and where it met what was the fore deck and ran level all around the boat except the well and transom in the back, all that was blue and had a height of about 3 or 4 inches above the hull. So Dad gets in the boat and cranks it up. The engine block is barely out of the water. This boat had some kind of vacuum sump pump using engine vacuum and the water poured out of the space from the engine cover. So he then heads out into the lake to "run the water out of it". Once he put the gas to it, the front of the boat would start to raise up, and the water would start to flow out over the back and sides of the boat. pretty soon most of the water was out, and he got it up on plane and just drove around until all the water was out then he put the plug in and came back to get us.
    So not putting the plug in isn't a disaster unless you can't install it while inside the boat. They you need to either get in the water to put it in, or go back to the trailer and get it to where you can.

    I have been boating for 3 decades or more and I have forgotten the drain plug! In my case, I was in a bass boat and made it a half mile from the ramp before I realized. My only option was to get it on plane, if I still could, and get to a sand bar or something so I could jump off and put the plug in. That was the scariest few minutes of my life!!!

    my coworker is small-time pilot with about 10,000 hours of experience and the one time I went flying with him, he meticulously went through his checklists for engine startup, takeoff, landing, etc, despite probably knowing it by heart. I imagine a checklist for boat launch/recovery would be useful regardless of experience level

      That requires a little effort and common sense, which these people don’t seem to have!

      It has a steering wheel and throttle. Like a car, right? So if it starts, it works, ready to go, yes?

    Suggestion: Instead of wanting to "get the shot", help these individuals out by communication to solve the issue before it get worse than it is. If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the problem. We all been there!
