Warning. Don't store coins in the sink! The quarter is the same size as the sink drain hole. The quarter plugged up the drain and rain water collected in the sink. For a while, I was frustrated because I could not get the quarter out. I tried different ways to get it out. I finally had an idea to use a drill. I used a drill to drill a hole into the quarter and the quarter popped out. I can now again use the sink to store my wallet, car keys, and etc. Storing coins someplace else on the boat.

I had a similar issue in my port storage compartment. An acorn from the oak in my front yard got lodged in the drain. I regularly use a shop vac to clear drains/lines/fittings. A couple of minutes alternating the suck and blow function cleared the drain. I also added a few feet of spa hose to the shop vac in order to remove collected rain water from the batter compartment and bilge.
