You running each engine exhaust through 1 tail pipe? Is that for a noise restriction reason? Luckily, so far down on the Texas coast, we don't have any noise restriction talk yet. You can see that the rear of your boat is totally set up for haulin' a** (compared to mine). I think Bob may be getting close on an order for another #6 boat.

Tommy
Yeah, it is for noise restriction. The 2 headers run into a big tank inside the boat to let the exhuast and water mix and kill off some sound, and then exits through 1 downturn outside the boat. I think BT has 1 #6 boat in the works right now.......

Also, BT has never built any boats with triple 6's either.

Attached is a pic of the headers going into the tank/cans.

Looks great!

Looks nice! Is that a bow thruster I see on there?

I had a water fill exhaust system from the factory on my 1987 32' SeaRay Pachanga. I don't think it cost me any speed, but sure sounded great when I removed them.

Yeah, that's a bow thruster. It was the fourth one installed on a BT. Won't ever have a boat without one now. We get some pretty good cross winds down here in the Houston area.

I'm pretty sure that first video is the coolest video ive seen to date, minus the sound of the wind....You swear you could reach out and touch them.
