Deck Vent for Stand Up Paddle Boards, Hollow Wood Surfboards, and EPS Foam Surfboards
Regular price $ 19.98
SUP Deck Vent
Venting is a must for all EPS foam core SUPs and hollow wood boards.
Goretex-like venting fabric keeps the pressure inside the board equal to avoid damage and delamination.
Position this vent 1/3 the board length from the nose in conjunction with a Vented Leash Plug for optimal venting.
White vents are BARREL style and have an M12x1.5 thread
Black vents are FLANGE style and have an M12x1.3 thread
There is no big difference in black or white vents, just the installation process.

1. Drill 1 1/4" hole x 7/8" deep
2. Remove scew vent (13mm socket)

I recently purchased a white SUP Goretex Deck Vent and have since lost the bolt (male end) of the plug. Is there a way for me to replace this part of the plug without having to buy an entirely new deck vent?
Yes you can order a replacement goretex vent screw plug in the drop down menu of the SUP Goretex Vent Plug product page. Choose Black color (M12 x 1.3 thread) or White color (M12 x 1.5 thread)
