[C320-list] Water lift Muffler

[Jane & Ken]

If you are lucky (a big IF) you may be able to tighten the screws around the muffler now that water has re-wetted the gasket.  Also be certain that the water is coming from the muffler and not from some other location.

Went to the boat today and started her up from her long winter nap. I dont think she wanted to get up because after I shut her down I found about 2 cups of water in the eng catch pan.  Looks like it is coming from the muffler.

I know this has been covered here before so I guess its my turn to R/R the muffler and explore my options and ask alot of questions should have paid more attention before.  What really kills me is how can it just go bad over teh winter.

How bad do they leak whne they go bad????  

I think one COA is to send mine to Catalina.  How long is the turn around time. Do they just fix mine or is it a new unit.  Any idea on current cost.

Is there anyone that knows where to go and get it fixed around Annapolis.

And I think I have seen where someone was able to by one for an aftermarket supplier.

Thanks
