Hey everyone. So, I have a leak. Bummer. This is my dad's old barefooting boat. I'm in the process of restoring it. I will have a post with pics about that soon. Anyway, I backed it down in the water, and when I pulled it out there was probably a couple gallons of water in the bilge. The boat was only in the water around 10 minutes. I decided to run the hose into the bilge with it on the trailer. It's coming out of the exhaust. Where do I start?

Can we post pictures in here?

Is there an easy way to get to them? Looks like I am going to have to cut the floor back out.

Its not hard to add images, but the whole fiirst page of the sticky on it is wrong.  Here are your directions:

Per Ken's request/suggestion, and per Ken's efforts in finding a relatively easy way to post photos, here is a step by step process.

1.  Have photos you want to post in your phone gallery or on your computer.
2.  Open website imgbb.com
(no need to sign in, sign up, or register unless you want to)
3. click or tap on "select images to upload"
4. Go to your gallery or computer and select photo(s)
(Leave autodelete option on "dont delete")
5. click or tap "Upload"
6.  In the "Embed codes" box, scroll to and select  "BBCode full linked"
7. in the box at the bottom of the page where the photo URL shows up,  tap or click "copy"
8. Open your CCF reply and tap and paste or click and paste.
9. Voila, its there. (Note: it wont show up until you view preview or post it)

I suppose 8 steps sounds like a lot, but its mostly quick easy point and clicks (or taps)  Goes quickly and easily.  Give it a try.



Where in TN are you?

The rear floor panel behind the engine should have a few screws to remove and it comes out to expose the mufflers and such.  They may need to be fixed with fiber glass mat and resin.  not too bad of a job.

Thanks @fanofccfan. I'm pretty sure the guy that redid the upholstery resined all the new floorboard in. I'll try to get these pics going so you all can see what I'm talking about.

And added this link to the You Tube video that Larry made so there are written instructions and a video showing how to do it.

I guess I will cut where the green line is on each side, pull that wood up, and cut the fiberglass mufflers out.

Do you think there would be any issues running the rubber exhaust hose from the manifold out to the exhaust flanges at the rear of the boat?

Rubber hose is fine but can get pricey.  Yeah you will have to cut that.  Originally it was a separate piece.  Find out what is broken and leaking and try to fix that.  More pictures after surgery.

Barely pulled on it and the muffler came out. The rubber hose that connects the rear of the muffler to the flange at the end of the boat was rotting. Found the leak

Ouch, that repair turned ugly quick.   You will get it fixed up and better than new.   You need. The panel behind the engine to be removeable, at times these things need to be fixed.   The shaft, steering, exhaust are all wear parts so access is needed.   A new floor plan will fix you up.

New exhaust plumbed in

I took it down to the water, started it up let it run then I noticed the transmission is puking fluid. I can't really tell where it's coming from. Bummed out
