The bilge drain on our Vega #1869 is located on the lower aft starboard sside of the keel. On our boat the plug is a 1/2 inch brass pipe plug (red brass). The job of cleaning the bilge by removing the fuel tank is and can be an interesting undertaking. If anyone has any questions about the procedure just let me know. Made easy jacks for the mainsail, again anyone interested let me know and I will send you a drawing with the measurements, they are a genuine help when dropping the main. thanks, Ken , chief engineer and deck hand.
