    1990 7.4 exhaust flappers

    Took me a couple of different tries, but I got the right ones from a mercruiser dealer. Made a big difference. I can still hear them flap at idle, but they no longer rattle.

Not sure if this dock fills up or not during this event? Looks like only enough room for 4 to 5 smaller boats. With the weather we are having so...
