Openings in the hull and deck
The location of the through hole and its plug is shown in Figure 2.
The Buster SuperMagnum has drain holes to drain rainwater from the cockpit. The
drain holes must be closed if intake of water is discovered from the holes during the
loading of the boat. In all other circumstances, the drain holes must be open.
Remove all deposits from the drain holes regularly to avoid blocking. The boat has a
screw cap at the bottom corner of the transom for draining water from the boat when
it is docked or on a trailer.
