I needed some forced air exchange to dry up my (wooden) dinghy after sailing to prevent from mold and rotting.

Connect 92mm 12V fan to a DCDC stepdown converter and then to a 18V solarpanel. The converter will make sure the fan doesnt see overvoltage, dont need fancy MPPT controller just oversized solar panel ;-)

The fan should push the air INTO the 80mm duct and then outside of the boat as pushing is more effective than pulling with these small fans.

Use heat resistant material like ABS or ASA.
