The Hobie rudder line grommet popped out at launch and after 4hrs of fishing I noticed the boat's handling was off. Opened the hatch and noticed lots of water in the hull. The manual pump helped here. I glued the grommet so it doesn't happen again.
I also use the pump to clean the deck after cleaning a fish. Wasn't sure if I should include this since this is a shark thread and another thread about chum...
