Default Re: Hull vents and lettering

50 bucks for 2 sides, and that was with the '77 added, so without would be cheaper. cool guys.

you get the plastic louvers from west marine. model 280800,5 slot louvered vent,size 13 1/4 by 4 3/4 by 9/16".

do not glass over the vents on the front outboard or not, the reason the decking and boat lasted so darn long is the airflow and under deck venting, boats get water in them, condesnation,etc. do what i did, turn the front vents to be stern opening facing. with an io you leave them front facing to force more air in i think is the theory.
