Sounds like the exhaust hose is delaminating. Has the engine ever been run hot? Overheated without water? Probably time for new hose. The hose should be smooth inside. |

Maybe he's looking at a muffler, and it's just like it is supposed to be? Perhaps someone put another one inline.
Buffalo, catch that edit? |

86BFN,
I've looked at that link several times but there's no picture of the rudder arm and steering box mod. Unless I'm brain dead and missed it which could be true. |

Modifying the steering system is a major safety concern, which I can understand not wanting to publish on the web. I doubt Tim would want his boat compared to the blacked out Squam inboards 2001 sacked out to the fuel tank vent. The boat has been to 3 reunions post exhaust, maybe he'll let you stick your head down there for a peak next time.

anyone know how big the exhaust port is at the rear of the transom? is it 4 or 5 inch? I have a buddy that does exhaust work, im thinking of taking and running dual pipes off the risers all the way back and then going into a larger "y" single out. it would have to sound better but dont know if it would hurt performance.
