I don't know if there is any kind of bilge evacuation system on those like a boat has. You run the blower for a few minutes prior to starting the engines and that is supposed to remove any fuel vapors. We would open the floor hatches and prop them open on the way to the boat ramp. By the time you got there, any vapors were long gone.

Not to my knowledge. I have ridden a few over the years but have never fueled one up

Me too, but they were always tourist outings and all we had to do was hop on and haul ass. My last outing was a tour around the island of Key West. Riding in the Gulf was smooth as glass. Once we hit the Atlantic side it was getting rough and I was having a blast jumping waves and boat wake.
