Vessel: 1997 Sea Ray Sundancer 330
Engines: 1997 7.4L Mercury Bluewater MPI
Issue: Occasionally in choppy water and when I have the tabs slightly down to take off to plane the boat I hear a grumbling sound which sounds like louder exhaust noise than normal. It's not all the time this happens but when it does it seems to be on the STD side of the boat. Could be wrong about which side, but generally speaking it's just louder.
Question: Are there parts or flaps in this exhaust system that wear or need replacement or maintenance in the life of the system? I ask because I have no idea what's inside the system because I have never seen it off the boat.
Thanks for any insight to this matter.
