Masi242, thanks.
Any other pics of how anybody dealt with thru hulls with the stock platform. Any all ideas and pictures welcome.

Pics ? For what location on where to cut the holes ? Is platform still on ? If so just take it off the gaskets will leave a ring of dust , dirt on the back of the boat even if the transom doesn't have the factory holes the platform will have the gaskets which will show where the exhaust comes through .

Aaah, now inside the platform can i come straight out to the slanted surface on the outside with 12" tips?
Really like to know if there are ribs webbing or other obstructions to deal with inside platform.

No, take the plywood off the back and you can see the glass. You may want to running turn downs and still,get some noise just not at idle.

Great idea if i need to go thru hull only, picked up a sweet deal on stainless marine exhaust & risers also got merc s/c dirverters i will try to get it all in there so straight will be ok. Have not got it mocked up yet as exhaust is at powder coater and freshening heads while apart.
