1990 Bayliner Arriva 2452

[Steve302]

Hey guys I just bought myself a Bayliner Arriva 2452 and the port side vent cover just behind the windshield is broken in half. I am looking for a replacement and am not having much luck so any info or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Steve

do you have any closer pics of the vent?

the vents were made by different companies.....not brunswick.

so the chances are you can find one.....

No clue on the vents, but ...

... dude, that's a good lookin' boat. Guess I've never seen one before, but for all that gets said about Bayliner - man, they can build 'em pretty. Enjoy!

Thanks for the compliment. i've heard all sorts of bad things about these boat but I just loved the look of it and went over it with a fine tooth comb and could find nothing wrong with it. Now I just need to finish my Century Restoration and I am all set. Was not really looking to buy a boat but I came across this one and the owner had it for 14 years and was an older guy who took amazing care of it and always stored it indoors so the only thing wrong is this vent and its really bugging me lol.

Bahhhh, the "yin" of your Century will offset any "yang" that comes from the Bayliner Centurys are beautiful boats. I get jealous of the owners quickly.

My folks have a 2000 Bayliner Capri. It hasn't been a bad boat. I used to sell against them when I was in the biz, so I've got a built in anti-bias to 'em. Honestly though, I've heard as many good things about them as bad.

well it seems they are one of the best selling boat manufacturers so that must mean something lol. I really do like my century to though it has nice lines and is small enough to go anywhere i want pretty much. The girlfriend thinks i am going to sell it once i am done to offset the cost of my new boat but I have other plans lol.
