Guys, someone stepped on my porthole and broke it completely.. do you know where can I buy/order spare one? Or the dimensions of the hole? I am not on the boat at the moment and unfortunately don't have pictures at the moment.. Will do as soon as i get on the boat.
hello again, I was finally on my boat to take some photos how would be able to let you know the exact problem I have now.. any ideas where can i order these new one?
I may be wrong but unlikely you will get direct replacements. Suggest you browse your local chandlers to find something similar or searchGoogle using the search words "Yacht deck vent" or "marine deck vent".
My 2 deck ventilators were crushed by my rigger wearing work boots. I replaced the head ventilator with the Vetus 'UFO' vent, and the other with a 3 inch Nicro solar vent, that fit the deck hole perfectly. The V-Berth hatch has a 4" solar vent. These aren't strong enough to really cool the boat, but it keeps the air exchange going and greatly helps reduce odors and mold, especially in our US East Coast summer heat. The Vetus is very well made, and low profile. It fit over the head fan outlet with no issue, and the fan performs the same as before.

my bad for wrong term.. we (croatians) don't have local dealer so for every part I have to go to Trieste and unfortunately they don't respond on my emails.. anyway as I have to apply new antifouling I finally have deck vent dimensions I will go straight there..
As I am not often active here, I posted this to see your suggestions and ideas, I found in Trieste the same as johnc posted,
anyway, inside diameter should be 10cm, right? asking this if someone have changed them already, cuz when i was measuring the diameter, I got 10cm and then the plastic thing that goes inside seems as 9,5cm..
I finally got my new air vents, and yesterday I went to change them. To all people that didn't know, the inner diameter is 10cm, the one I bought is 95mm but i put enough silicone around and made new holes (threads) in new air deck plate/base so I screw the new air deck plate/base into the same place where were the old one was.. here are some pictures, unfortunately I don't have them all step by step but you can see my job.
