Forespar TruPlugs

The Forespar TruPlug is an emergency temporary plug used to stop water from entering your boat via a hole caused by maintenance failure (broken thru hull), or an accident (hull breach).

Even a small hole can sink your boat very quickly. For example, a 2 inch 1 foot below the waterline would fill a 55 gallon drum in 40 seconds. Don't try to rely on a bilge pump for emergency situations like this.

The Forespar Truplug is a much better solution than having a bunch of wood plugs kicking around. Especially where wood plugs don't fill irregularly shaped holes well. The Truplug has a soft cone shape that compresses by hand or can be cut to fit. The foam fills and conforms to the unpredictable shapes of most hull breaches.

Use the TruPlug to seal most seacocks, valves, thru hull fittings and hoses to stay afloat until further help arrives.
