    It was a plate that screws on with 8 screws. You can see in the following picture.

    Mine has that plate also and I like that the best. I have seen them with the decal also like the boat of the month. I don't know if the decal is original though.

    They are easy to damage around the dock. You could look into having them reproduced.

    If you are reffering to my boat '78 hydrodyne [boat of the month]. It originaly had a plate, because there are 8 holes on each side
