So the step is aerated from a vent somewhere topside? How does that work? I think I'd be a bit nervous with a big old hole in the bottom of the hull - I'm assuming there is a duct or similar that runs to vents in the hullsides or deck?Speedwake said:

The 50 O/L have been venting their steps via tubes from the step to the gunwale in the cockpit for a couiple years now. I forget where I read that.dockrocker said:
I once thought about a ram air type pickup in the front of a boat, up at bow, using tubes, leading to the steps. But I thought, nah, if it was good for something, somebody would have done it already.

Hey, is that when Dave was on the phone with me???Speedwake said:
no - not at all - you see the end of the vent - when the boat is coming up onto plane the end of the vent is out of the water and a vacuum is created under the boat - thus sucking air through the tube.....dockrocker said:

Those tubes look like an after addition? I would have like to them Incorporated in the glass work some how.
