Well i got down with a flashlight yesterday afternoon, and began looking. When i looked up in the exhaust tubefrom the rear of the boat, it looks like there is like maybe a baffle layer inside the tube. It looks like there are maybe hundreds of 1/2 to 1 inch bubles all in the pipe. Is this some type of sound dampner?


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.
