Aquasport Metal Name Plate

[Hbrod2336]

I recently bought a 1975 19-6 and the only thing missing is the metal Aquasport plate that goes on the side. It looks like someone removed it to service the bilge line and didn't replace it. I've tried Ebay with no success. Does anyone have one or know where I may be able to find one? Thanks in advance!

The original 'metal" badges would probably need to be custom made. A member long ago had a shop make a generic pair out of stainless. They looked good but not quite original. Everyone else used plastic replicas. Ebay was one supplier as were several homemade suppliers. Might be a little harder right now as we haven't seen that request in some time.

Here's a 19-6 on Ebay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/324082389549?_trkparms=amclksrc%3DITM%26aid%3D1110006%26algo%3DHOMESPLICE.SIM%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20200818143230%26meid%3Dd84154bb84a94158b02c6fe5dead29e1%26pid%3D101224%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D5%26sd%3D223891316325%26itm%3D324082389549%26pmt%3D1%26noa%3D0%26pg%3D2047675%26algv%3DDefaultOrganicWeb&_trksid=p2047675.c101224.m-1&amdata=cksum%3A324082389549d84154bb84a94158b02c6fe5dead29e1%7Cenc%3AAQAGAAAA8NxzrDes75CdJ5PmqqhjvvZVKlirMOx9tjJBRw8a%252B01Tqo3UxYwjJLI8XKYpXD6Z5bwem5BGHWl3OX5BmOVxp2JlWDs6CM2%252FMW%252BI%252BjZYt4ZthUZEB9xHvbuFe0yP1PnM0L8c9AhGEy85Xp%252FjpFeuIGq6HAUbjrvE2YOrVXgUOeR3yDwl9dw2UtAQTbMqR7hkC7ZPqMKL%252FJeT1NHddJUyRT%252FWQRp4%252F0UnzLXgHiWVykPWVXtwbEud81Nwf74iQDb77QRoGkPcrkrS5L%252FtEMYQQVoFbTi%252B8jwNz3vWGx7whGBCXdBQ6EiB9wOi1HW6x%252F9egw%253D%253D%7Campid%3APL_CLK%7Cclp%3A2047675

Thanks Capt.,
  I wish that were what I was looking for. Right now I just have a 4x8" rectangular hole with screw holes around it until I can put something over it. I'll keep searching and maybe someone will have a good lead for me.

That sounds like the louvered bilge vent cover.



Look at the photo in the upper right corner.

Check here for a 3 louver size that might fit.

Pretty sure I have an original vent that you are looking for. I will look it over and see if it will work as it was off a 240 model but might be the same. Let me know the opening size where it goes.
