Boat cover vents

[bb01760]

My boat is on the lake covered with the nice black malibu cover that came from the dealer.

On sunny days the temperature inside hits 120-140 F, my equipment does not like this a tiny bit. My neprane life vests stick to themselves.

I am thinking of getting something like this:

( solar powered vent )

Has anyone here had good/bad experience. I hate to think I will have to cut a hole in the cover, but I have no other idea.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I dont have one of thoes, but I do have one of these http://www.overtons.com/modperl/product/de...sc=Boat_Vent_II

Well, I have it, its just still sitting in the box... So I dont think I'll be much help. I bought it last year when i bought my new cover, but I cant get my self to cut a hole in my cover to install it. I'd be interested to see if people have used any of these types of products.

I was putting the cover on the other day in the sun and I was absolutely baking under there! I can't imagine what it gets like after sitting for a few hours in the sun.

I might try those solar powered fans. Looks like a good idea...Will let the group know how they work.
