Yes it is a mercruiser part it is listed as an exhaust resonator part # 860222a1, At the dealers it lists for 37 ish Dave sent me a link that was it listed in the upper 20's.

Resonator to me means "muffler" type device. Which make sense as there have been similar devices marketed for years, slip in style mufflers that sat in the exhaust hose or tip to knock down the noise.

I would dump the F'ers, you have all the water protection you need, get rid of the restriction and let her bark! :eek:

I went in the water around noon, so did I beat you?

Just wanted to give a shout out to Bob and crew, along with Jeff and his crew. Could that have been any better of a weekend? Maybe 10* warmer, but we survived.

We traveled about 140 miles on Sunday and another 30-50 miles on Monday. Hats off (Molson 18 pack hat) to Jeff for his continued job as our private"Tour Guide Guy". You continue to amaze me with the 007 routes we take. The Rift was flowing pretty fast, but everyone made it through unscaved. Running back from Brockville on Sunday should make for some pretty cool video. For those of you who didn't make it, I'll let you know when the DVD is comming out. Bob, tell Tom I want my advance copy!

The crew from Scott_Free were cool too. Great bunch of new friends!

Thanks All!

Dave & Gail

From what I heard saturday there is no more "We" to it. Seems the fellow Flocker has left Dodge and headed for parts unkown. And the wayward drifters and transients just don't count. So it looks like it's one Fountain, one Formula, and a whole chit load of Sea Rays. Actually crossed my mind to inquire about the vacated slip, but then I remembered that it has that mysterious undertow current that f's you all up when docking. :eek:

A 23 year relationship with Mark and HBW, and starting year 14 in the Boathouse makes me kinda like a fixture there. Bruce and Ann, Bob C. and Dianne are about the only ones that have been there longer. So who's keeping who around? :D

I don't think you're odd, though you do have an odd habit of attempting to walk in odd places! We can be the Odd Ones Out together. Just remember that if it were not for us odd folk the rest of them would never be able to feel normal.

I was there to show a Formula, of all things, to a guy from here on OSO. Turns out his aunt lives here in Potsdam, is in real estate, and has done a bunch of deals for me over the years. Very nice guy so I felt I should make the run up and meet him and show the boat. Didn't hang around very long, grabed some parts and came home to finish up the Biotch.

We'll have a toddy and talk springs next time you're up! :drink:
Might even bring up the bottle of Bookers seeing it's you.
