Dock Holiday

I'm building some new blower motors and trying now to get all the rigging lined up. Do you guys prefer to dump the intercooler water out the side of the hull or out the back through the transom and why?

I'm leaning toward the transom just for a cleaner look.

Thanks in advance for your replys.

Mine are dumped out the transom

Just finished installing my intercoolers and wondering about the same. About to drill holes for the discharge. Would really be cool to use for the drive showers but wouldn't be able to see.

KNOT-RIGHT

I ran mine out the sides. Mainly cause the holes were there
However It gives you the ability to lean over and know your spewing water.

after having both, i would choose the side so you can take a quick look for your water flow.

DO IT ON THE STARBOARD SIDE! Just a quick glance back there and you can see the water flow, I check mine all the time. You will just have to get used to people telling you that your bilge pump is running

Out the side. I always look over the side and see the water coming out. If you dump out the back do it over the outdrive. Just a little more water to cool the drive

use them for drive showers

I'd go with straight up; out the top of the gunwales.

That way, you will look like a pair of Yamaha PWC coming down the lake.

My boat had blowers when I bought it and they discharged out the starboard side (I've since sold the blowers). If you raft up or dock much you won't like it. Whenever I rafted on my starboard side people wouldn't like me spraying water on them......lower profile boats would actually have water going IN their boat.


What about on the transom but angled slightly up so you can see it when running????
