Looking to replace a port side engine vent cover for a 2008 Rinker 296 Bowrider. The current cover is broken off in the middle. Any help is appreciated.

Wow, that's a 'ell of a vent cover,.....

Any chance you've got some, or all of the missin' pieces,..??

Best I can offer is, you could fab up a mold with duct tape, 'n cardboard, then build a new one with fiberglass, 'n resin,....

that vent cover is only available from Rinker. it was custom made by Rinker.

your choices are find a used one on ebay, or buy one from Rinker, or make one out of fiberglass.

Rinker is out of business

Woops was OoB looks like covid didn't take em out

Double woops, had it right the first time. Polaris bought Rinker and stopped making boats
