Just curious, but my Puma seems to be the only BC model that Ive noticed that does not have a forward facing hull vent. It only has rear facing vent on driver side near transom. Others have a forward facing vent on opposite side in rear. Some newer models seem to have them on the sides just between seats and transom made to look like part of boat. Am I missing it, or if not, why only 1 on Puma FTD vs others? I ask for no other reason than curiosity.

With the introduction of the EPA pressurized gas tanks (2014/2015), the requirement for 2 vents (1 in/1 out) was reduced to only one needed to vent the bilge. The side scoops on EYRA models are more cosmetic than functional and it would look funny if they only had 1.
