Weasel,
Are you referring to the long rectangular vent (~3" X 12") on the side of the hull or the triangular vent near the tailend of the windhsheild?

Re: 311sr 1 engine vent replacement
I replaced the long retangular ones with some that West Marine had--used chrome for a whiel and whne tht pitted I changed to white. They are plastic but tolerable.
The pie shaped one would be great if made out of billet--sweet--because ther are plastic tooand it won't take muck to break them. Are those the same size for 311's and SR357's ??
Maybe we can get a group buy if they are--

Not to interfere with your offer to Seaweasel, but, could I purchase a "surface mount" vent from you? I have a cracked vent on my 89' 272. Are the vents "BLACK"in color?
Thanks..

Did anybody "belly-up" to reproduce these vents in billet?
Mine are the original plastic and even though I painted them when I painted the boat they are starting to go south.
