The stainless construction will also reduce interference to your magnetic compass.
I've bought two of them they are the correct replacement.

in the 70s at cigarette , Don ordered those centre caps from a company in Italy . they were custom made in brass and the cig logo was hand painted and fired in ceramic . with a center stud for mounting in the chrome plated cap . I recall them a a heavy peace . we used them on all the production boats. not on the race boats , they would fall off. sonny miller I will buy one if some one will call me

If you ordered a boat from Don , it got delivered , if you ordered a hull, it got delivered , if you ordered a mold , it all got delivered on time. He wore topsiders,we wore topiders, He smoked shermans, we smoked shermans , He wanted to race,we wanted to race. He treated us all the same.He was a class act . He gave a small guy like me a chance to run with the big guys for a long time. sonny miller, back in the day...........
