[QUOTE="Ray Clark, post: 499433, member: 31103"] Some states prohibit transport of boats with drain plugs in place; this is an anti-invasive species requirement. The Iowa code says: "Drain plugs, bailers, valves, or other devices used to control the drainage of water from ballast tanks, bilges, and live wells must be removed and opened while transporting water-related equipment." Minnesota requires drain plugs to be removed as well. I keep my drain plug on a chain right next to the drain port. I have a checklist of stuff that I do before launch, and drain plug insertion is one of the items. [/QUOTE]
