Hopefully it's not exhast gases as well as with many vessels including monos.

My new-to-me 42' planing cat (configured like a sports-fish) ends up with

the cockpit and aft glazing covered with salt after running at speed. This is
probably a problem with a lot of sports-fish boats, but likely made worse by
the increased beam of the cat. Any tricks or attachments that might alleviate
this (other than getting air-flow through the boat and out the back door -
it's still too cold here in Victoria for that)?
