Recently I had my Max serviced and the drain plugs were evidently left out (I have never taken them out, I use a shop vac to remove any water in the bottom). Since I had never had the plugs out, I didn't check before riding it into my pond this weekend and before I knew it, there was water up to the floorboards...Long story short, I made it out (another really good case for having a winch!!) but now I wonder what, if any, damage was done. Anyone have a similar experience? What should I check or do at this point? (Besides find some more plugs and put them in??!!)

Thanks in advance for any help.

John

John,
Get more plugs and keep a couple extra sets with you and don't always assume that the plugs are in. I doubt that you will have any damage at all. Just lube the chains back up again and check to see if the belt got glazed after getting wet.
