I need to replace the flexible lines leading between the exhaust
manifold ports and the exhaust ports on the boat. ?IIRC these are
about 6" in diameter or so. Anyone know where I can order this
stuff?
Might have to cut it to length.


If you need help for this stuff than you need to supply some better
info...what motor, I/O or inboard, what hull, what year, FWC or
no....
GOOGLE can be your friend. Talk to folks at your marina. Buy a shop
manual, you're gonna need it, trust me on that.

It's pretty generic stuff Mike. Most marine exhaust parts houses can
sell you some. It should be sold by the inch, not foot. pricey stuff.


yeah i need 2 hoses about 6' long each. as an engineer i'm not
surprised it's pricey...hot water, reinforced, etc...- Hide quoted

BTW, Automotive ehater hose is good for over 250 degree f. and steel
reinforced Hydrolic hose goes even higher than that.

But not many radiator hoses are 6" ID. And 6" hydrulic hose would most
likely cost even more.


6 inch ID?????

I don't know of anything like that.

Actually his hose is either 4 or 3.5" most likely and not a lot of those in
radiator hose either.
