1988, 17’ Newport , 90 hp 1988 Evinrude fitch, 9.9 Honda kicker. Took 3 large waves [Boat wake) Over the stern And then she just filled with water, before I could do anything. Help came right over, and pulled us to shore about 1/4 mile at most. Started beige pump, right a way, took about 1/2 hour of pumping to get her floating to normal.

Question,,, when boat is swamped, can you pull the plug and drain it, will it self rise to normal flotation..?????

Question; 2 , what Is the right way to handle a swamping?????
