Hey guys & gals. I am Robb. I have just purchased a 1986 Montego 26, salvage boat. It has been sitting in a yard for 10 years. I am really excited to be fixing it up and motor-boating down the ICW. I just got one snag. Can anybody send me a pic of the transom drain plug, so i can find its location? The manual says its in the engine department but shows no location. It looks like the bottom of boat show towards right of engine. My engine compartment has water covering it up. Thx for the future help! Excited to be finally working on my retirement project. This is my 11th and biggest restoration project boat.

Re: Howdy ya'll!
Welcome aboard!
It's on land, correct? Look underneath, you'll see it from the bottom. Should be very close to the transom, on the bottom, in the middle.
All the Carver's I've had were the type with a raised "T" handle.

Re: Howdy ya'll!
Welcome, and that sounds like a good project. But you are a expert with 10 other boats restored.
