I just bought a 1985 Formula 242LS with a 260hp Mercruiser engine. The exhaust exits the transom (noisy). I've read that its pretty easy to move the exhaust back to the prop. Can anyone tell me if that is true? Thanks so much for any advice!!

Re: Transom Exhaust to Hub

Wish I had that problem. Hey mine goes through the prop, want to trade boats? I'll take a Formula. Anyway, I wanted to change mine from silent to what you have but it's really not worth the effort. There are some parts you can buy to convert it to have both. I believe its Corsa that sells the kit but it is expensive. They have one called "captains choice" or something like that where you can hit a button to run it out the back or down out the prop.

Thanks Manipulator! What kindof boat do you have! lol. I just prefer the quietness...but maybe I'll try it out to see if the noise is ok...or too much. I think if should be an easy inexpensive switch. Thanks again!
