Hi all,
I'm Ray from the Netherlands and I have a 300 Sundancer with twin v8's. My boat has open exhausts and that's where the problem starts.
We've enjoyed a nice holiday on the boat but the continuous loud and deep sound from the exhausts doesn't help enjoy boating with my boat but even more important is the issue regarding carbon monoxide. I have alarms on the boat and they will sound everytime we go out there. It helps when I close the backside of the canvas but since I also have a young son I dont want to take any chances.
Now, since I really like the boat I was wondering if there is a possibility to reallocate the exhausts openings to below the waterline. Maybe someone on the forum has done this already and can share experiences?
The engines have been completely rebuild last winter so this should not create the issue with the co2 so the only thing I can think of is reallocate the exhausts.
I hope someone can provide me with some advice because otherwise I'm afraid I have to sell the boat.
Thanks
Ray
