Post by: Reckless on March 20, 2010, 02:12:41 PM

 Can't seem to find replacements. Proper name for it might help. thanks


Maybe these pictures will help. They are 4 inches in diameter. You could store rods in them. I think thats what they are for.

What did it come from? Looks to me like a grommet type thing to feed wires through a hole in something. So when you drill a hole in something, the rough edges won't scrape the wires.

Looks like it's about 8 bucks or so.

And if I may add, it looks to me like the previous owner/you may have cut the grommet. If the previous owner cut it, maybe they cut it to ease the installation. To install that properly without cutting, you would have to re-run the wires. Or you could cut the grommet so it slips over the wires with ease, and slips right into place.

Looks like the  splash guard (that what I call it) where the boat manufactures call  the road storage (area under the gunnels). I never seen a rod in one the only thing their good for is deck brushes. I never seen a replacement for those.
