Exhaust outlet - through-hull
fittings
The through-hull fittings are placed at a suitable point
above the waterline with a loaded boat. If the through-
hull fitting opens below the water-line a shut-off valve
must be installed at the outlet, or a rigid pipe connect-
ed.
This type of outlet is a kind of standard component
and should not be located at flat transoms. See
"Wagon-back effect" on page 68.
