Burt,
First off, Congratulations on the "new" boat. You're going to love it. As for the drain plugs, just make sure the drain holes are clean (no sand or grit) and you should be fine. You can use a little Vasiline on them to make them easier to install and remove too. Another poster on this board suggested making an installation tool from a one inch dowel by cutting a slot in the end. Sounds like a helpful idea that I'm going to try.
Have a great time on your boat.
