Just acquired a 1983 Omega jet boat. Where would someone go to find miscellaneous parts?

Carpet, wind deflector, rail brackets
If the wind deflector and rail brackets are off the shelf parts not specific just to your Omega, like Attwood or Perko, you have a small chance if finding replacement parts. You could spend a long time digging online w google, craigslist and/or ebay. Possibly years...

If they are Omega specific parts, it'll be a real challenge to find even used OEM parts for a nearly 36yr old boat. Particularly a no longer in business boat maker.

New rails and brackets that would look similar, but not be factory correct, can be found. For most (nearly all) boats factory correct restos dont command much of a premium when sold.

Same for a wind deflector and carpet. Unlikely to find OEM, but you could make your own wind deflector and find fairly similar carpet.

Some buy a 2nd (or 3rd) entire boat for parts, 1 or 2 years older or newer Omega might be just similar enough for parts to work.

In most cases spending big bucks on a factory correct resto of a Chrysler K-car. Do it because you love it, not because it'll pay off. Esp boats from the 60s thru 90s.
