A deck ventilator suitable for small vessels is formed as a low dome 12. Outside air may enter it through window 14 and then circulate around member 30, through orifice 22 and down duct 7 which pierces deck 4. Member 30 usually serves merely as a shield against spray, however if a surge of water enters compartment 18 the orifice 22 is closed by movement of member 30 which is slidably hinged to U-shaped rods 23. This closing movement results from the combination of the impact of the water on member 30 and the member\s inherent buoyancy.

A deck ventilator comprising a squat cap having a side wall formed with a window next to the deck; a common-wall formed with an orifice and dividing the cap interior into two chambers one of which communicates with the window; a ventilator duct in the other chamber and having its lower end portion projecting downwardly through the deck; hinge means in said one chamber; a closure member turnable about the hinge means from a first position at which the orifice is unobstructed and to which the member is biased, to a second position at which the member closes the orifice and a buoyant element effectively integral with the member and which biases it to the second position when the closure member is impacted upon by a horizontally directed surge of water running along the deck and entering said one chamber by way of the sideways facing window.
