[Public-list] exhaust exit

[Brian Palmer]

Richard,

I think the pipe stands proud of the hull to keep the exhaust water from
running down the hull.  Ever see a boat where the water can run down the
stern and the paint is all black and stained?  The pipe extending out is
supposed to help prevent that.

On our Boat the exhaust currently exits from the port side and the bilge

pump water from the starbord side. The thru hull on the port side sits 
almost flush with the hull. On the starbord side there is an extra bit 
of bronze pipe that sits proud of the hull. To me it looks as if this 
may have been reversed at some point,as the pipe would keep the hot 
exhaust water away from the hull.
    Which way is it supposed to be?? Since we are going to be changing 
the engine this would be a good time to correct this if it is wrong
