I was able to get some flat profile vents. They are SST painted black. They work great for the rear vents because they lay flush with the boat and won't bend or break. My friend Phil hooked me up with them. Over the years (41) we have broken plenty of the plastic ones on the rear due to crunching them on the docks.

I found white ones, and guess I could paint them with plastic paint in a pinch. Thanks!

I have the ( I think original SS ones off my left over K Moose 23 Tsunami ). Just let me know....pay ship.

I made aluminum frames to protect mine from fenders.

Are the 20 and the 23 vents different sizes?

My 78 sf20 and my 73 sf23 used the same plastic ones

Louvers
 
Years ago I replaced my '76 Seafari louvers with ones slightly larger. Bought them aftermarket. Thought they were same size as on larger SeaCraft models- maybe not. But never found replacements for the larger ones in WM or Stuart, Fl marine supply stores. Hence the repair I described. The flat SS ones Jim Bigpipe has look good.
