Leaking water at switchable exhaust - am I the only one?
 
My 38' Fountain Lightning w/ switchable exhaust (believe it is Corsa, but not 100% sure) is leaking water where the hinge for the switchable exhaust comes through the top of the tailpipe. I had the same problem on my 27' Lightning a few years back. I hear everyone talking about their bilge being completely dry. Am I the only one that keeps having this problem??? If not, is there a fix?

Thanks in advance,
Brad

Does it leek always, or only when routing thru outdrive?

BL6,

Thanks for the response. Leaks on both engines when exhaust is open or closed, but definitely leaks worse when the exhaust is closed (i.e. thru the prop).
