I was surprised at the difference it made in summer especially. I had heard the batteries need to be replaced every few years, but did not have an issue. +1 for vent in hatch.

Though I haven’t used them myself on the Enterprise, I’ve heard of others having great results with them. The one caveat I’ve heard, in order to really get the benefit, is that you should install two; one towards the front of the boat pulling air in and another towords the back blowing air out. This will create an air flow that will keep the boat fresh. I’m going to do it one of these days, though I’m not sure if I can bring myself to drill holes in the deck. All the best, Edd Edd M.

These are usually wooden boxes but there are plastic one available too like this from Defender: http://www.defender.com/product.jsp?id=1646992&path=-1|6880|2290139|2290147 In another reply Jim Watts recommended a Day/night solar vent. This is probably a better way to go as it will continue to move air even when there is no wind. These from Defender: http://www.defender.com/category.jsp?path=-1|6880|2290139&id=2290144 Ken H.

The vents sit atop a Dorade box. It has a stand pipe off set to the vent. This allows air to enter but funnels the water through drain holes in the side of the box. There are also caps that replace the vent scoop. Hope this answers your question. Doug Pegasus LF38 Just west of Ballard, WA T-Mobile.

Seems I live in the Pacific North West where we have an abundant of moisture. Does it have something that can be closed during downpours.
