Searay SRV 230 Weekender 1986 Blowers functional correctly

[Colinb]

Hi Prepping my boat for survey

Please inform me re my Searay 86 SRV230 Weekender re bilge blowers :
Re the factory design of the blowers and hoses -:

so the air is blowing our the port side vent just fine -

the starboard side vent is designed to suck clean air in correct while underway as no air coming out the vent ?

What about the vent on rear just below the hand bar, as don’t feel much air blowing out - if at all actually- so is something up here, should the rear vent suck in or blow out as strong as port side ?

Thx much

The way my '95 works. Air in on the Stbd side transom / swim platform area by the grab rail, air out on port. I leave my blowers on all the time when engine running, since there are no induced air "scoops" on hull.

If yours has "air scoops" on gunnel's, then scoop facing forward is air in, induced by forward motion, port facing aft is air out for natural air flow.
