    Trolling motor plug plate

    I have a 1996 221 Elite. I needed that piece too but couldn't find one. Ended up making a piece from 1/8" aluminum plate. It is soft and easy to machine and form. I used simple tools to work it; like drill press and files and hacksaw. When final shaped, I polished the plate then "engine turned" the aluminum surface.

    It turned out beautifully. Everyone who has seen it has really liked it. I liked the look so much that I made a round drain cover for the cockpit. Drilled, polished and turned like the other.

    No, sounds like he's looking for the bow panels.

    C&O will probably be your only hope unless you can find a hull someone is parting out. They purchased all the Mtn Home parts inventory when the plant moved to TN.

    That is a bow panel Reggie... At least it is exactly the same design/shape that was on my '96 181 with the exception of the TM plug mounted on the left side...

    Another option is to use carbon fiber material and just make your own using the old ones as a template... Mark Miller has some of this:

    I broke mine and C/O had the piece that fit around the outside and sent me some stock to make the inside piece. I used a Drummel tool and cut it out for my 1994 front panel.

    My bad ... I see that now. But I think the 95s still had the rectangular ones ...
