What is that wooden plug thing on a string? And you also have a spoon and knife down there.

The wooden plug is in case you need to pull the sounder, or it springs a leak.

Some racing fleets require a wooden “bung” to be installed like that next to every through-hull in the event of breakage. It’s good practice, although certainly not a sure thing that a true breakage could actually be fixed with a bung like that.

Oi, that's a bailing spoon, that is.

Looks like a transducer to me. Follow the wire and see where it leads to. It looks pretty fucked though.
