Help ID this...

Post by jasondon »

New to me 2012 242WSS
Should have taken a pic, but hoping someone can tell me what this is.
In the back by the engine there is a large white plastic "thing" rectangular in shape. There are slats/holes in it. I have no clue what this could be. It's a fair size.
Could this be for the front where a center bow cushion would sit?

Boat didn't come with a center filler cushion, maybe the p/o forgot to give it to me?

Anyone?

It may be the “bottom support” of you wet storage area.
It is the storage locker you access from the swim platform on the port side of the boat. Has a mesh lining, the large plastic sheet you are describing sits in there on the bottom to give that area some support and shape.
This is the set up on a standard 242, maybe different on the WS model?

That sounds exactly right. Strange as it was sitting in the mesh bag on its side, not laying flat. I'll try laying it down flat tomorrow.
Thanks for the tip!
