Drain tube splash guard

Post by CooperB »

2006 39my - I’ve been looking for this rubber fitting for two years. It located on the exterior near the window on the aft deck. I don’t even know what you call it. The attached picture may be coming in sideways. Any suggestions on what it is called and where to find a replacement? Much appreciated!.

Welcome aboard.

That looks like a hooded drain thru-hull fitting. See if Marine Town still carries them....

Here's one I found on-line which looks like the one but am unsure about the size and it's overseas. I see the brand is Marine Town too, so we might be on to something....

Those seem to have either a 25mm ODF or 32 which I doubt the hose connected to it is that big. Verify the hose size before ordering anything IMHO. Probably better off with a fuel vent in chrome or stainless. At least those will look good for decades to come unlike the PVC one that looks bead afetr a few yers in the sun.

That being said, the fuel units are made for 5/8" hose, worst case scenaron is you will need to enlarge or reduce the hose size if i is not compatible with the OEM size hose.

Here are some examples. Perko makes one that is quite similar to the existing model if you scroll down a bit.

Seadog also has one available made of Nylon which would hold up much better then PVC. Only available in black though.

To add.
Another way to clean it up if you want , just fit a clamshell cover over that broken end there just leave the existing where it is.. They come in all kinds of sizes, finishes.
FWIW.....The above is just my opinion.

Ya I agree with both the above, you're better off switching to stainless steel even if it's not the same design.
