I have probably made a couple a thousand plugs and never use a belly grommet.
I do use a drill bit on the hole after I drill it that flairs the hole out so the swivel doesn't get hung up on it if it were a straight hole. As for the paint wearing and water soaking in, that's why I use AYC. Cedar doesn't absorb water.

No boat, back in the suds.
