Thank you for the replies.

Drain plug makes sense. I think I will leave it alone.

Before posting, I had tried to turn it with hand, but it did not move.

Plastic can get very brittle when it is old and it has been sitting in sun.

I have angled the kayak forward and used a sponge that I keep in the kayak to remove any water in the past.

if it is a sit on top kayak it will drain any water that gets trapped inside the sandwiched hulls. It probably has sand in it that makes it hard to remove. Turn your boat upside down and squirt water under pressure into the threads. It should come lose. If it doesn't it may be cross threaded and once you get it out it will have to be replaced. If you have a sit in kayak then leave it alone and just drain the hull out of the cockpit.

if your kayak starts getting real heavy you might want to figure out how to get it loose, or if you hear sloshing noises when you pick it up.
