That plastic you are thinking of is FRP (fiberglass re-inforced plastic ) is available at any lumber yard or Lowes.- Been discussed here before as truck stop toilet walls.- I've considered it but the main problem is it is very thin.

That part in the center.... with the big round knob is the cover for the shore power receptacle,which should be near the helm.

They were the cheapest and closest for me.I put them in myself.

For two engines (left handed one was $1000 more than the standard one) with closed cooling,new transmissions and shipping it was $18,000. 7 years ago. But I needed everything and found that all the marine parts were hard to get, and would cost more for the 318. If you have pumps, manifolds,heat exch...
