TruPlug Could Save You and Your Boat Simply By Plugging That Unexpected Hole in the Water!

Simple, useful in an emergency, for sure!
Simple, useful in an emergency, for sure!

APtravelnews-New Product Review-April 11th, Port St. Lucie, FL-Bob and Barb “On The Water Again.”-Yes, during my daily boating adventures when I lived on the water in the Keys, I wish I had one or more of these new TruPlug units. Soft, pliable, but very, very strong, it can be jammed into a hole or crack in your boat to stop the leakage caused by the damage.

Writing this, due to the fact that about every boater at one time or another has run over something that causes a breach in the bottom or side skin of their boat. An impact breach, like getting hit by the bow of another boat, or hitting a piling, can be devastating, but these floating units can save the day by inserting, pushing & twisting it into the breach, or through hull hole!

This item is a soft, cone shaped plug, designed to conform to the irregular and unpredictable shapes of a hull breach or a round hole too! For an emergency, you should have a few in your boat! The unit is a true stop-gap solution for an emergency leak. The item is a tapered 9-high by 5-inch wide at the base life saver, in our opinion! They also have a very neat smaller TruPlug unit suitable as a key chain that also floats. If you lost your hull water plug, this will work, if you need a plug for your bait box drain, you got it! A great temporary plug, anytime its needed! Go: www.truplug.com 

Flexible and will push into any crack or hole!
