The answer to this may be based on personal preference.
Is there a standard diameter size when it comes to deck plates/ inspection ports? I want to install three ports, bow (so that I can mount the handle), mid port behind the splash guard for storage or ventilation, and stern for a rudder upgrade. I don't want the ports to be too big or too small. Would the standard be say, 4" which would actually have about a 53/4" flange diameter, or a bit bigger with a 6" port that would actually have about a 8 " flange diameter?........... or as stated before, is this a preference thing?
