Have installed a number of PSS units, including my own 2 boats. The Reliant does not have the vented seal because we are less than 10 knots boat speed. The power boat uses the fitting for water injection, bled off the raw water pump, because the planing speed evacuates the shaft log of water. Never seen one used as just a vent--but makes sense.
