Can anyone help source some new internal flanged trim rings for the roof holes for the ventilators on our Maxi 100. The old white plastic ones have rotted (UV?). They cover up the gap in the headlining and the hole in the deck, from the inside. Fix with 3 screws and fit holes 95mm in diameter. I found one at a boat jumble recently but can't find any more.

G'day Michael,

If you are into DIY, replace the tube with 100 mm PVC pipe, your local plumber will have stacks of off-cuts, glue this in place and fit a ring made of ply (varnished or painted), Formica or other suitable material, a very small bead of white Sicaflex around the join and no more UV problems, if you let the pipe overlap the ring by a couple of mm any drips will fall rather run onto your headlining.

Hope this helps.
