Thanks, Mo your right in 2006 I have a 26 footer

I am having a few problems with the box that was made It seem it will hold some water, but I am not sure how much. I would drill a pilot hole to let some drain but that makes me feel uneasy, possable reversion? If it got to high?

In one of the pics you can see it is about 41/2' to travel up seem like a lot of water I am also thinking flexable 4 in. hose to make the last connection.

Any thoughts my wife thinks I`m a fool

I don't see why you would get any more water with your system than the original S.T. The exhaust isn't any higher or lower than original.
I would drill a hole (or some holes) to allow for drainage.

PS. Your wife is probably riight



But should include ALL of us

Don't make the holes to small so as to clog up.

If your wife thinks you are a fool then you are probably on the right track

I would think if I put one 1/2 in. hole in each box that would alow enough drainage?

Well the project is done, everything worked out fine. The water flowed out fine below the platform . I put three holes underneath on each side for more water flow. It is almost a dry exhaust

It was a fun project, but I`m glad it`s over

The sound is a bit louder but not over powering.
