Default open comparments while charging battery?

My bass boat has enclosed compartments for the batteries - like many other
kinds of boats. I have always opened the hatches on those compartments while
charging - seems I remember that hydrogen gas is released while batteries are
being charged and a spark can cause an explosion if they are not ventilated.

Anybody else heard that? Do you ventilate your batteries while charging?
