These are well nigh universal on whitewater "tupperware" boats. Goes in the very end of the boat. WW boats have no hatches and a complex hull that does lend itself to teeter-totter emptying. So, unscrew the plug, stand the boat on its end, and all the water pees out. Almost any kayak shop has them.
