I have a Marlin 300 and need a part. It is the twist off deck plate that is used to access the pull rods for the seacocks. It is OD 8 inch, ID 7 inch. I have looked and looked but can not find an exact match. Nothing is imprinted on the plastic itself Thanks

Try Beckson Marine. They make the screw in and pop out versions for GW.

They do, but the outside Dia is 10", and the inside Dia is 8.5". Look near the bottom.

I just replaced the pry out deck plates in the transom area with Beckson 6" twist outs (DP64-N). The outside Dia is 8", inside Dia 6", hole Dia 6.5". They fit perfect, even the screw holes.
