I was out one time with a friend, and he call over to me,"am I riding low in the water''? I said looks alright to me, then take a double take, most of the back of his prowler was under water. He had left his middle hatch open and it had started filling full of water. We closed it and moved all his stuff to my prowler and I towed him in. It was a calm day or he would of lost his yak I'm sure. I went out the next day and bought a pump.
A small leak or not having a hatch on right or the drain plug not in all the way, or
God forbid a shark chewing on your yak and when SOT's take on water they'll sink at least to the water line.
I thought foam but it would weigh you down to much. At lest I carrie a good hand pump these days.
