RE: arneson drives
The intakes for the engines and other systems on a boat should be checked regularly for fouling and such. If you don't do it at the end of a trip, you get to do it before the next trip, which may cause delay, or you get to do it during the next trip, which may be a career decision....

RE: arneson drives
We had a trial on a yacht equipped with such a drive once. Didn't look at this area of the construction much, but i suppose the engine requieres cooling so checking if the duct is clean is a good practice. Should always be done if a posisblillity of serious fouling exist.
