Vent lines through hull

[Droberts]

New owner of a used 2005 3D RFI. I noticed three vent lines exiting the hull near the front port side. Where should these lines originate from? One of mine simply drops down to the bottom of the hull but connects to nothing, is this correct?

Typically the small hose that is "connected to nothing" is the battery vent hose. It connects to a standard flooded battery. If you have a sealed maintenance free battery then it isn't used.

Good call and thank you. That is exactly the case as it has a sealed battery with no vent line.
