Had a Centaur for many years and the Tiger has similar high coamings.
I'd find a way to run a duct up there and put the opening on the
outside, Use a clamshell cover, open side down, to keep spray out.

Looked at the brochure justt now and see a layout diagram with 2 Q
berths, but no picture of them. But guessing they are similar to the
Centaur, you probably could run a duct in the aft of the Qberth. Cut a
hole to the lazarette, screw in a collar to attach the duct, run up in
the coaming to the the exhaust hole. Clamshells come in white plastic
and chrome. *



Installing bilge blower on Westerly Tiger.

What is best place to place the 3 inch vent?

Would like to avoid cockpit area and that best would be through the
lazarette and then out, high up, through the transom?

But before we cut a 3 inch diam. hole in the stern of the boat!- Hide quoted text -

Re the similarity between Tiger and Centaur?
Hoping when I get back to it that bilge blower hose can go through the
bilge to the lazarette; up through that and then to some kind of vent
(probably clamshell).
An alternative may be to have the hose loose in the lazarette and just
drape it outside; whenever we run the blower!
But having gone to the trouble of changing the manual bilge pump to a
transom through fitting seesm like a nuisance.
Might also reduce the hose to say a two incher, on the output side and
have the 3 inch. in-hose blower mounted in the bilge without any input
hose/s.
Many thanks for the comments posted.
