Surprise

The our 360 Sundancer is still out of the water…(weather hasn’t been conducive to being on the water plus a few other things) … anyway, got around to replacing the 4” grills at the exhaust of the bilge blowers (still available through Replacement boat parts.com)..they were original and had “weathered” ….low and behold, what is this?? Somehow, a bird had made its nest up in the hose
I check the airflow after refuelling and it seemed normal. Not sure how long it has been up there….we bought the boat in 2013!
Worth having a look.

We just replaced ours as well. Having a difficult time getting the blower hoses back on. Any tips?

A little bit of silicone spray on the inside edge of the vent tube helped when I did mine. I then put one wrap of black duct tape, I have black duct hose, around the end to protect the plastic hose from the medium duty double wire ties.
