Been out of Sea Rays for a few years and looking at venturing back in the fold. I am currently interested in a 2005 480 MY. From what I understand, the Cummins engines in this boat have problems with the exhaust overheating as they are "dry exhaust". Can more knowledgeable folks here explain the set up on these exhausts and how they differ from the typical wet exhausts and how much of an issue is this? I have read some accounts of overheating and warping the heads. That can't be good!
Any and all information around this issue and these engines would be appreciated!
Thanks in advance!
