RONSTAN BUNG AND DRAIN PLUG

I've been asked to leave a review for this bung. I had bought this to give to a politician as he had requested a bung to help out with a question, but it turned out not to be the 'right sort of bung'. No matter, since luckily I have a boat and this one fitted the hole at the back and seems to just the item required for this. After inserting into the said hole, it transpires that turning it one way lets the water in nicely for the water ballast effect, and turning it the other way helps keep the water inside. Turning it again the other way then lets the water back out sometimes. It also seems that sailing backwards with the bung unscrewed is not wise but there was no warning in any of the instructions that didn't come with the product.
In summary - useless as an encouragement to politicians, quite good as a manual boat hole valve.
