[C320-list] Aqua lift muffler

We had a similar issue on Simpatica #166. I was able to repair mine. I removed and used a roto tool with an eighth inch, or so, wide grinder bit. I ground a channel around the base making sure I ground both sides of the seem. I then filled with epoxy using an veterinarians syringe to apply. Leak gone going on three years now

Good luck

My muffler is leaking at the base when the engine is running (not a great amount). The engine is a Yanmar 3YM30.
Has anyone experience in fixing this? Should it just be replaced? Who supplies one?
Catalina Direct does not seem to have the right model for this engine configuration.

Thanks,
