Maybe I should try to find a boat salvage yard in that area of the country to have better luck finding one?? It would be really cool to find the company that supplied this injection molded plastic part as they might have the original mold in their archive storage.

Those models were fairly common around the country. What is uncommon is to find them parted out. Either they are still attached to the boat, or the boats from that area are junked. There isn't a ton of scrapping. The logistics and space is simply significant to have parts for a large enough quantity of boats. It takes a long time to find the person looking for that one obscure part from a 30 year old boat, of a specific make and model. It requires a ton of space and capital tied up in parts boats sitting around. It's why you find so few boat scrap yards around. Even when you do, it's like a needle in a haystack to find that one windshield or swim platform....in decent condition.

I posted a link to thread that discusses how to post pics. Here it is again:

You might need to get your post count up before you can post a pic. I think you need 5-10 posts.
