Hoping someone can point me in the right direction. I have noticed that at idle in the marina that the water flowing from the above water line outlets is appreciably different between sides. The port side has a small amount of water, while the starboard side has a good, high volume flow. When I raise the idle to over 1000 RPM I see similar indications of exhaust flow from under the boat. There is no sign of overheating and the boat ran just fine on an 8 hour trip. I have had a cat mechanic look at the boat and he is questioning a blockage in the exhaust splitter but says not to worry, as long as there is no sign of overheating. I have inspected the port side impeller and it is fine.
I not a big fan of the"don't worry" method of maintenance and before I start tearing things apart, I figured I would see if anyone else has any suggestion.
Thanks
