We've never felt the need for wind scoops. If we are at anchor, the
boat usually points into the wind and the hatch popped up acts as a
wind scoop. I've seen some boats where the hatch can be hinged on
either side in case the wind or breeze isn't coming from the bow.

In New Jersey they are big on windscoops. Almost every boat in the anchorage
will have one. But you seldom see one on Long Island Sound unless it's a
Jersey boat that drifted north..
