What reason is there for a drain plug to be larger than 1/4 inch?
It only has to drain 40 inches a year.

There are times here in FL where we get 3 inches in an hour, no joke,
you can actually see the pool level rise that much. Most small
block I/Os will ruin the starter motor if you get more than 6 inches
or so in the boat, not to mention the potential damage from the
(considerable) extra weight.
