That did not surprise me. It is amazing how many people forget the put the
drain plugs in the boat when launching. At a fairly busy public dock, one
summer I saw two people who forgot to put the plugs in. After realizing
the boat was taking on water, in their confusion they were not able to seat
the plug from inside the boat. The boats were taking on water so fast, they
beached the boat.

If they had not been loading the boat at the dock, they probably would not
have noticed the problem till they were in the middle of the lake.
