Re: To Vent or not to vent. That is the question.
The more I look at, help repair and work around the more I appreciate the design of these boats. I see some boats that are 30-40 years old, that still have the original decks in them, maybe with a soft spot or 2. The majority of these older boats in my area (which has big temp changes and a TON of moisture in the air) need complete deck jobs. I think the hull vents have alot to do with this. After discussing it with a pro boat builder who has seen hull vents first hand help to save decks, it pretty much made up my mind for me.
