48 Sundancer ....I'm replacing my exhaust hose this weekend and looking for some suggestions on the best way to cut the new one down to size.. It's a 3" hardwall, corrugated, wire reinforced hose. Thanks,

I'm kinda thinking maybe a hacksaw, and sheet metal snippers unless you have access to a bandsaw.

Hacksaw and a pair of wire snips

Hacksaw and snips it is...That was the first thing that came to my mind as well so I'll let you know how it goes.

I just changed mine out and had one cut to length from West Marine, the other I used a hack saw and wire snips.

Have a heat gun handy. Heating up the ends a bit helps with installation. The cheap heat gun they sell at Harbor Freight is what I use.

Hack saw it the way to go! Man the 3" stuff is a nightmare to work with.
