Hey Charles. thanks for the info. Since the waterline is about midway on the body of the muffler, I had my doubts. I was not going to remove the vertical part of the discharge hose that goes down to the thru hull fitting.I have taken the riser hoses...
‘01 340 with 8.1 Mercruiser V-drives - raw water pumps need service. Canister type mufflers will need to be removed to access engine belt ends - can the mufflers be removed with the boat in the water?
not enough room under that one for access or storage or on the port side step. the hull flares up and in , look in the compartment under the v-berth and to each side and most of the room there is centered
