How long do you run your blower??

Also, on hot days (over 85 or so), I will run it all the time that the engine is running and for about 5 minutes after I shut it off if we are going to float for a while. I have never had vapor lock following this process.
I think that if you are underway and it's not too hot outside, enough air is going through the engine compartment that the blower does not need to be on. But on a hot day or during times when you spend a lot of time at slow speeds, I think it's a good idea to run it to help evacuate the hot air.
You said 85 is a hot day. Ha ha
