Opening ports are nice to have but when the breeze stops, the air stops moving. Rain and spray can enter an opening port easily while the new model solar fans protect from rain and they will work automatically when the boat is closed up and keep it smelling fresh. I have four solar fans on my 35 footer. Some solar fans like my Nicro fans have a rechargable battery and run all night. My Nicro fans have an On/Off switch and a damper to close in rough weather.
