Default Billet Garden Hose End

Anyone know where I can get one of these water fill plugs (besides Fountain)?

Yeah Green tea. I nabbed that pix off the Shogren site. It was a new boat so it must come with antifreeze from the factory.

Still cold up here. The marina was supposed to open for the season tomorrow but they delayed it a week or so.

Thanks for the info, I'll try West Marine. I looked on the Dana and Trick sites but diddn't find them.

I've never seen water intake (femaile) fittings with colored screw on caps at West Marine? In fact just bought one from there to install my flush kit and all they have is standard black caps? Wonder if there is just simple replacement colored capps without having to buy the whole fitting?

The ones I've seen so far are blue annodized aluminum on the new Fountains. The female fitting on the boat is still the same Perko or Whitecap.

West only has the replacement plastic plugs and caps that I can find.

PS I am sure Fountain uses LowTox antifreeze.
