Grandpa always had 3-5 in the glovebox of his truck. One would always get left somewhere or someone at the boat launch would be swearing about missing theirs and he’d give them one. Just one of those things you have to keep around.
If you can get the boat going before it floods, the boat moving through the water will create enough suction to drain out any water. You just better have a plug waiting for you at your destination.
Answer from comment chain: drain plug from a boat. Without it boat floods, used to drain boats before towing

Are they like one size fits all?
No, but in the area we were in at the time it was mainly flat-bottomed aluminum boats. All of them were similar sizes, so pretty generic plugs.

LOL, read my story below. Tried exactly that, and it worked well enough to get beached. Shenanigans followed.
