Manufacturer
<p>Vico Plastics has carved out a distinctive niche in the marine accessories industry with innovative products designed to protect boats and extend the life of boat covers. Founded by William Gridley with an entrepreneurial spirit, the Wisconsin-based manufacturer methodically re-invented marine ventilation products, and their Boat Vent II has become an industry leader for OEM and aftermarket boat covers. What sets this company apart is their focus on engineering practical solutions that address real challenges boat owners face—from moisture buildup and mildew growth to sagging covers under snow and rain.</p> <h3>Engineering Excellence in Marine Protection</h3> <p>The company's approach combines precision plastic injection molding with high-grade aluminum components to create products that withstand harsh marine environments. With 25 years of experience in vacuum forming and specialization in low-volume custom parts, Vico Plastics brings manufacturing expertise to every product they develop. Their <a href="/200184-boat-cover-supports-vico-plastics-7637">boat cover supports</a> exemplify this commitment to quality, featuring patented cam-lock mechanisms and anodized aluminum construction designed to outlast traditional support systems.</p> <h3>Patented Ventilation and Support Systems</h3> <p>Their support poles are warrantied to support 170 pounds—more than twice the capacity of standard thumbscrew poles. The poles feature heavy gauge anodized aluminum adjusted with aluminum and stainless patented flip locks, making them both durable and user-friendly. The integration of ventilation systems with support structures addresses a critical issue: without proper airflow, boat interiors become breeding grounds for mold and mildew that can cause irreversible damage to upholstery and electronics.</p> <h3>Why Marine Professionals Trust Vico</h3> <p>Canvas shops, boat manufacturers, and marine retailers have adopted Vico products as industry standards because they solve multiple problems simultaneously. The quick-installation design reduces labor time for professionals while ensuring proper cover tension that sheds water and snow. Synthetic rubber crutch tips protect boat flooring from scuffs and provide secure grip even on wet surfaces. The company utilizes the latest technology, capitalizes on experience, and abides by lean manufacturing standards, ensuring consistent quality and efficient production.</p> <h3>Made in America with Marine-Grade Materials</h3> <p>Vico Marine is a division of Vico Plastics located in Wisconsin, and all products are manufactured domestically with materials selected for their resistance to UV degradation, salt spray, and temperature extremes. The company's commitment to quality control means every component undergoes rigorous inspection before reaching customers. Whether you're protecting a pontoon boat through a harsh winter or maintaining a fishing boat in coastal conditions, Vico's product line delivers the reliability that serious boaters demand.</p> <p>For boat owners seeking professional-grade protection systems, Vico Plastics represents the intersection of innovative design, American manufacturing, and practical functionality. Their products don't just meet industry standards—they define them.</p>

It was a good price on the pump I bought, but the picture showed it came complete with the nozzle assembly, but it did not so the picture is misleading
