Fall13 Miles

Last week, I was given the honor of doing some exhaust removal...... my favorite. The muffler on this Nordhavn rusted into two pieces at the top flange due to weather intrusion.  On this project, I observed a new setup (to me) to ventilate the engine room using two 12 volt blower motors and ducting to draw cool fresh air into the engine room and push warm air out of the exhaust shroud.  It requires more componentry than the "venturi exhaust system" that I am familiar with, but could be a better fit in many applications.

After we cut the muffler off, I had to grind and punch out some seized fasteners.
