Assuming you have through transom exh?

Flappers on the tips are important...waves can drive water up the exhaust risers. Stern wake striking the transom will do it as well. Even prop exhaust systems have the internal flappers on the Y pipe system to arrest that...despite the prop being under water a ways.

Yes, through transom exhaust. External flappers we're left in place and internals are gone. Being stainless marine exhaust there's no internal flapper or dam. But I have seen what you're talking about on a 496ho
