Hello...

I seen a similar post earlier about this... I had my boat in the driveway the other day on muffs and noticed that a lot of water expelled from the cooling system seemed to be squirting out somewhere around the transom plate. I couldn't tell if any was actually running out of the prop hub as it may have just ran behind the prop and down the skeg.

I have it in the water now and at idle at the dock, it looks as though the exhaust gases are coming from the transom and not from the prop hub. I read in another post that this may be normal. I have check the exhaust bellows and everything is attached properly, and sealed as the boat takes on no water whatsoever. I was under the impression that the exhaust system is sealed until the exit through the prop hub. Is there something I am missing?

Thanks for any help out there!:)
