Re: exhaust hose
Krush, not sure that's a muffler, think could be a flapper check valve only. Have a much smaller one in our genset exhaust between the exhaust elbow and the lift muffler.

Re: exhaust hose
They are sized to be a tight fit then the pressure from the T clanks helps too
I had to get some made and installed on the lazzara 84 I run, with C32s. While replacing the 15” diameter hose between the engine and the fiberglass pipe, the mechanic over tightened the T clamps and cracked the glass. Ended up adding crush sleeve on both sides.Pascal

Re: exhaust hose
1986 63 MY. I need to change the exhaust hose connector between the tube and forward end of the muffler. On my model,
I have good starboard side access to the inboard and top side of the hose via the cabinet under the master
head. The hose id 10" id, 13" long and best I can guess is 6-7" between the fiberglas ends. I have clearance
to slide the hose forward on the tube, but not back on the muffler. Trying to figure the easiest way to remove. I
might can cut it in half with a sawzall, but thinking I can slit the hose, with a Dremel, along its length over
the tube end and slide forward 3-4". Ideas and tips welcome.
Replacing with silicone hose. Suggestions for source for 10" ID hose?

Re: exhaust hose
I need to do similar work, my guess is that the riser needs to be removed from the turbos and the tube moved forward into the engine room. It would be easier to cut the hose in two and then install the new hose with the tube pulled back . I suspect that I have a crushed tube, I was assuming the I needed to replace the tube and then put a stainless insert into the tube. Pascal mentioned just putting an insert would work, if the tube is cracked, would it be water tight after the insert is in place?

Re: exhaust hose
The guy on here with the Masterplan Miami YouTube channel did a video on replacing the exhaust hose on his 58YF. You might try to find that. John

Re: exhaust hose
All done. Exhaust is 2" deep in seawater, plugged with a couple of shopping bags filed with play sand.
Used razor knife to cut flap in top side of old exhaust hose. Used small drill pump to remove about 16
gallons of seawater. Caught the remaining gallon in a pan when I loosened the t-bolt clamps. Old hose
was easily cut with razor knife. Both the tail end of the exhaust tube and leading end of muffler had
been cracked by overtightening. A previous fiberglas repair had failed on one pipe. There was only 1"
between ends, I cut back the tail of the exhaust pipe 3" to provide more installation clearance. I then
ground back damage along cracks with a side grinder (see pic). Prepped and filled crack with thickened epoxy.
Added fiberglas cloth 6" on either side of crack on outside and inside of tubes ends. After curing, used
soapy water and easily installed silicone hose and clamps.
