[C320-list] Head Vent

[Pat Tyler]

You can get it from Catalina.  You get both parts, I just threw away the
part that goes through the hull.

> I was having problems with the head at the end of last season.  It was
pumping very hard and even leaking a bit of water down were the head is
resting on the fiberglass when pumped.  After talking with some people I was
pretty convinced that it was a venting problem.  I removed the vent  from
the outside of the hull by unscrewing it.  It came off and sure enough it
was badly corroded and with it off the head pumps perfectly.  I went to get
replacement part and the new vent they gave me at West Marine wasn't the
screw on kind.  I actually have to insert it through the hull and screw on a
nut from the backside to secure it.  This looks like the same vent I've seen
on the newer C320's.

vent and just get a new screw on piece that would screw right on to the
threads already coming through the hull.  Does anybody know what the part
number is of that type of vent and/or where to get it?
