Hello. I have a question for you. Are all of the plugs on the Yamaha the same? I bought a 2016 212x but haven't picked it up yet. I wanted to order that adapter, just wasn't sure if it would fit. Thanks for your help.I just ordered this adapter for my boat.
Yes it will be the same.Hello. I have a question for you. Are all of the plugs on the Yamaha the same? I bought a 2016 212x but haven't picked it up yet. I wanted to order that adapter, just wasn't sure if it would fit. Thanks for your help.
The stock SS Yamaha drain plugs are threaded at the top and bottom/end. Take another look at the pic you posted. To remove them entirely from their mount just unscrew them through both sets of threads. I hope this makes sense.So I have not looked to hard but whats the process of getting the original drain plug out of the boats? Mine is a metal plug that doesn't really came out that I know of it just unscrews and sit in the hole still.

You should be able to remove cover to clean out ports and easily pull a wire from the plug up Port side to batteries. You need to run an inline fuse or breaker and also probably want it to a switch. You could pull a line all the way to dash for the switch or wait and install a switch by batteries to turn on and off.Can someone describe the process of running the wire from the interior of the drain plug to the battery?
