Dorades

Have you added something to your boat? Got pictures of a project? Post them here at our catch-all forum for the things we do to make our boats better.

Dorades

Has anyone installed (or seen a setup that would work) dorades on the 350? The only function that I found that I need that I have not found a good solution for is air movement in hot / inclement weather or offshore in bad weather.

I am asking the all-knowing list for ideas.

Dorades

I have installed two of the solar vents on the two hatches over the main cabin. They are the larger, stainless ones, and I put them in the center of the plexiglas hatches. I have the 4 3/4" hole saw if you decide to go this way.

I figured this was best to suck the hot air out of the boat, and avoid water coming in like might happen if i had put one in the front hatch. They are up high, and not likely to get doused.

This is a pretty old thread, but I'd like to repeat the question. Anyone install Dorades or any other ventilation upgrades?
