Solar Vents
Does any one know of any good solar vents to help ventilate the boat. I could use ones mounted in the hatches or on the cabin roof. I would like to get one for the v-birth one for the head and one for the saloon.
Thanks for all the ideas in advance.

Re: Solar Vents
I have found both the Nicro and the Lewmar vents to be good performers.

Re: Solar Vents
I have two Nicros and two spares. One is used to ventillate the AIR HEAD so no power used. They seem like good equipment. Get the SS cover option for a bit of impact resistance.
