If this link works it's to a thread on this same forum from 2017....has pics of the setup very similar to your boat.

Click on the link and go to last post by gale...they have 4 good pics with labels showing the system...the one thing not shown is that the hoses should extend all way into the lower part of bilge....say 3 or so inches from bottom of bilge. The fuel fumes are heavier and the hoses that low ensure all fumes are evacuated...

I will add...these vent locations are just like mine. I always worried about this as the intake doesn't catch forced air as the older style noted in Lou's post.

For this reason...I tend to run the blower often. If I'm not cruising I usually have it blowing...especially during water sports with all the stopping and starting....oh, dont put the end of the intake hose right next to the end of the blower exhaust hose...you want good flow of air passing thru the bilge so run the end to opposite sides of bilge. This gives more air passing thru the area.

One more note...who ever sold you a boat with no blower needs an ass whooping for not letting you know....while I know your anxious to boat...get that setup before....its not worth the risk.

Get the marine blower...no shortcut as they are spark resistant.
