The newly installed hatch exhaust fan has had time for the adhesive/caulk to set up. Mother Nature hasn't given us any rain for a few days, so I pelted the fan with water from the hose... then ran inside to check it out. Dry, no leaks. More pelting, still dry. I opened the exhaust ring that allows a flow of air, and gave it more man-made rain. Dry. It's a good thing.
I was less than confident in the air exchange bowl on the housing - it looked like a "water trap." I sealed that off with some RV adhesive caulk (used for roof and windows), then took the Dremmel to it to make weap paths for water to get out. Looks like it works, after a thorough dousing.
Joan is testing out a dehumidifier... the goal: the driest boat in south Texas.
