31 TE, Keel Drain?

Post by Ben62 »

My 31 TE is out of the water. I can see a small drip of water on either side of the Keel at the same location on each side. Did they some kind of Keel drain? I first thought this may be a blister but evidence of draining at the same location on the port side.

Thanks

Ben

I have a 1994 Albin 28TE and it has a drain in the skeg. I notice that the 95 has a drain in the lower center of the stern. I remove the plug when I go away for the summer. Picture to follow.

My 95 has a drain on the starboard side of the keel. They call it a garboard plug.
