So I did the port side exhaust tubes and shutter valve yesterday and it went well .fitting the shutters is the most challenging part . I didnt bag the drive . Onçe the lower tube is off the fun starts. Pried the old shutter out while rinsing the bilge with plenty of water .pumps start. Once it was out i jammed on the lower tube to stem the flow and worked from inside it to fit the new shutter. All together again with new riser gaskets and everything is greatI will I have already had the one lower off and was able to keep up with my onboard bilge pumps without bagging I am hopeful that I can slow it enough to get the shutters changed I'll for sure fill in on this when I do it tomorrow or Tuesday so someone in the future can benefit from my experience good or otherwise.
