What should I do if a squall hits while using the Breeze Bandit?

The Breeze Bandit is designed for quick removal from inside the cabin. Just release the four interior snaps and close the hatch. The scoop remains tethered to the halyard and blows free without detaching. After the storm passes, reattach the snaps and redeploy in seconds.

How long does the Breeze Bandit last in tropical sun?

In strong tropical sun and steady trade winds, expect around 6 to 12 months of use. In less extreme conditions it can last much longer depending on UV exposure and usage.

What hatch sizes does it fit?

The Breeze Bandit fits hatches up to 21 by 21 inches or 24 by 18 inches. Larger hatches up to 24 by 24 inches may be accommodated by releasing the bight in the snap webbing.

How is it different from traditional wind scoops?

Unlike single-direction wind scoops, the Breeze Bandit works regardless of wind direction. As the boat swings at anchor, the appropriate panel catches the wind automatically.

Do I need to remove my bug screen?

Usually no. The flat webbing can typically slide between the hatch frame and the bug screen frame so ventilation and insect protection can remain in place.

Is it difficult to install?

Installation is simple. The Breeze Bandit secures with included snaps around the hatch and attaches to a halyard to stay taut without poles or rigid supports.
