Since your're digging into 'stray cat' I wanted to ask: Have you taken note of the exhaust hose exit on the transom? I ask, because I noticed that my exhaust hose 'droops' down from the 90 back to the bulkhead penetration, and then droops again in the lazarette, up to the exhaust flange on the transom. Does yours also?

I was debating replacing the 9' run with a piece of fiberglass exhaust pipe, and just having the rubber hose from the water injection elbow to the side 90 . BUT, I realized that with no muffler, that water baffle provided a pretty quiet engine. Now I'm not so sure I want to put a hard pipe in, but keep the droops filled with water!

Wondering how yours compares.

Thanks.
