Bob's Machine Deck Plug for Pedestal Seat Base, 1.77 Inch, Black

The Bob's Machine Deck Plug is a 1.77 inch plug designed to close the mounting holes left in your boat deck when a pedestal seat base is removed or not in use. Left open, these holes let water into below-deck compartments and create a path for tackle, bait, weights, and hooks to fall through and get lost. This plug seals the hole with an O-ring for a watertight fit, helping keep rod holders, storage compartments, and bilge areas dry and free of debris.

Installation is simple: drop the plug into the vacated pedestal seat base hole and the O-ring creates a tight seal against the deck surface. The plug is finished in black, giving the deck a clean, finished look rather than an open hole. It is built around a patent-pending O-ring sealing design specific to Bob's Machine deck plugs.

This deck plug is sold as a single unit and is intended for boat owners who swap pedestal seats in and out, such as anglers who remove seats for extra deck space while fishing and want to reseal the mounting holes afterward.
