- 1997 Mainship 34 Motor Yacht
My 82 Mainship 34 is currently hauled out for bottom paint and other winter maintenance. I was inspecting the exhaust outlet in the transom and stuck my arm up into the outlet and discovered the exhaust hose had delaminated and the inner rubber layer bulging in an inch or so at least where I could reach. Looks like time to replace.
My question to those who may have tackled this is, how to remove the hose at the transom fitting? I appears to be a real tight fit back there, not sure even a small person can get in there to remove the clamps. Possibly cut an access hole in the cockpit floor?
Thanks everyone.
