I'd love to have a solar vent on my boat but there's no good place for it and I hate to cut a hole into the structure for such a thing. I also don't want it in a skylight hatch since I have nice custom fitted covers.
So, I was looking at the deck plate for my new diesel cabin heater and thought, why not there? The vent is for when I'm off the boat and the stove won't be running then. It's a natural draft stove so essentially a duct that goes right down to near floor level. I can leave the door open to get a little less flow restriction.
I just have to remember to remove it and install the smoke head before starting up the heater.
