IMPORTANT: When installing through-transom exhaust, it is recommended that the
exhaust bellows on the transom assembly be removed. This is necessary to avoid
creating a vacuum at the exhaust outlet in the propeller at higher boat speeds. This
vacuum could degrade propeller performance on some boats.
