Fortunately for the owner, he had good insurance coverage.

Gregory’s Marine was able to left his boat out, pump out all the water and completely rebuild the engine and out-drive.

Unfortunately, when he launched the boat, he forgot one important thing. He forgot to put the plug in it. Water can’t come in the plug hole as long as the boat is moving forward, so it didn’t matter how long

He brought the boat back to the dock, tied it up and had to hurry off to meet someone. He was gone all weekend, and when he got back, he got a call from his neighbor that something was wrong

The gentleman who owned this boat took it in for service, had the boat detailed and took it out for a spin on the lake.
