Engine compartment dividers

[CenturyRide 0]

Not sure if I’m using the proper terminology here. I’m looking for the dividers in the engine compartment that separate the engine section from the side lockers. I just got a boat and they are missing. Not sure why they were removed. There are two aftermarket ballast bags in the ski lockers, and I imagine that it would be good to have that divider to separate the hot engine manifolds from the rubber bags. 
 

Anyone know what these are called and where I can get some replacements? I have a 2011 Avalanche. Or should I just make some out of plywood and cover them with fiberglass and epoxy?

There are actually 4 of them in your boat. 2 large and 2 smaller forward. You can try calling centurion. They might be able to point you to a vendor. Otherwise, you’ll have to make them. I’d use plastic as thick as the U-channel on the floor will hold. I’d also reinforce them with U-channel aluminum on the engine side.

What is u-channel aluminum? You mean a sheet of aluminum glued to the plastic? Or are you talking about aluminum u-channels? The u-channels are still there

Through-bolt aluminum U-channel to the dividers for reinforcement. Otherwise, the ballast bags in the lockers can push/bend the dividers and dislodge them.

If you look at the PDF attachment in the first post of the thread link below, there is a picture of the divider reinforcements that I had on my old Avy.
