A stratos 201 Pro XL CAN stay fully afloat all day w/o a drain plug in it.....or at least mine can. I did an 8 hr tourney w/o it screwed in at all...just hanging and left the bilge on auto (It ran about 10 secs every 5 mins). Never had a single issue, not like another boat I had that almost sank when this happened (both times dealer removed, I NEVER remove a drain plug......NEVER EVER).
Kudos to Stratos for the bilge set up on these boats!

I've done it 3x. i think it seats itself a little when the pressure hits the hole.
Around here, we have to remove our drain plugs when trailering the boat or its like a $100 fine.....

a 2000 javelin renegade will float also just hit the bilge every 30 mins or so and was fine,and before you tried to take off
