Re: [Cal_Boats] Re: ventilation

Hmmm I knew it would affect the efficiency but didn't think they were that easily removed. I have a 2 already that were for my old boat that I never took out of the box. They were made to install on a hatch. I thought being made for a boat they'd be at least salt water "resistant" for a period of time. Ill have to take a close look at them.
