According to Yves Perotin, who was a historian, Le Tampon was equally a milestone. There is dithering between the fight plug, a sort of wood cork with which one, one mouth the hole does by a projectile in the shell of a vessel, and the howsehole plug that provides to close this one to the sea, allowing himself the migration of the sea water on the bridge of a boat.
