I love the idea but I have a mast wrap that the prior owner provided. Its amazing how such a simple device can warm up the cabin.
I have other ventilation...so if you do too, I would heartily recommend a mast wrap. David F.

They are an ingenious way to ensure good ventilation below. The mast acts like a chimney especially on not days. The holes suck out cabin air and it exits at the mast head. Air gets in to the cabin through the main cabin hatch and engine vents. Never had a problem with musty air below decks Cheers John and MaryannLegacy III1982 C&C 34Noank, CT From: CnC-List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of David Knecht via CnC-List Sent: Monday, June 09, 2014 9:26 PM To: CnC CnC discussion list Subject: Stus-List Fwd: C&C question I got this from a friend who is looking for a new boat.

The first time I saw this, I was concerned about the strength of the section. After seeing three, however, I believe there must be a good reason for the holes. Is it a way to control humidity within the section? Is there another reason? Is it something I should be concerned about?Thanks,John This email is free from viruses and malware because avast!
