Commence on a journey through time with Buchan Marine's timeless 5" Round Vent. Our classic round vent, echoing a traditional cast round shape, has a rich history. Originally crafted using bronze sand casting, it evolved into a more contemporary form with the introduction of a 304 sheet-pressed design. Now, we've revisited the roots of this classic round shape, eliminating the welds and returning to the art of casting. The result is a beautifully flowing design piece that revives the elegance of traditional craftsmanship. This reborn jewel features a more open throat, ingeniously designed to facilitate increased airflow into the cabin. Rediscover the essence of maritime heritage and functionality with our reimagined 5" Round Vent.
