Hi Dan,
As you probably know, raindrops bounce. You must
keep the bounce out of the vent hole into the
boat. What you linked is essentially a hood,
next is required a baffle to keep the wet from
getting below and a box to make it all elegant.
With this arrangement it does not need something
that can close during downpours. However, if you
simply attach a vent then you will need something
that can close during downpours.
The current best arrangement was popularized by
the racing yacht Dorade and became known as the dorade vent.

Iâm wanting to install a vent on my C&C 26 and
curious on how the rain is kept out? Seems I
live in the Pacific North West where we have an
abundant of moisture. Does it have something
that can be closed during downpours.
Thanks,
Dan
