turn-down exhaust tips on G23?

[biggator]

Anyone done this yet? Fairly inexpensive mod.. wondering if it makes any difference in noise/exhaust. Had them on my Malibu and liked them.

interested as well, gotta tell u the port side surfer gets covered in exhaust fumes, hoping NSS install next week reduces that

i might be interested. would love to have quieter exhaust without the complete fresh air exhaust thing. wonder if turn down tip would make a difference.

Ryan.. that's exactly what I was looking at. We're all regular-footed.. so surfing is what I'm thinking about.

Ya we need someone to measure their exhaust.... This would be quick and cheap... I just wish it went down another 3" or so.

i just got one of those hang tite things to install on my cover, I should be able to Measure the diameter of the exhaust tonight.

FYI - I wanted a fresh air exhaust for my G23 but Buxton has tried 4 different mounts on another G23 and cannot get the thing to stay on. There is just to much force back there to keep it on. The shorter the better would be my guess.

I measured the same.

Anyone had any results from turn down tips or the like?
My daughter was light headed after surfing the port side for about 10 minutes. We put her in the bow and headed in. She is the only family member who surfs regular foot and this was the first she has complained about it. She has mentioned the 'smell' in the past(yes, I realize that CO has no smell).

Spoke with Buxton Marine regarding their success(lack their of) with FAE on the G23. They even went so far as to use the FAE tube and fab their own mount brackets. All results were the same. The mount failed under stress during turns and at speeds above surf speeds.

Has anyone had any success with turn down tips or any other FAE like system?

Thanks.

Sorry to hear that!

I surfed quite a bit this weekend and noticed pretty much no exhaust.. maybe I'm lucky. Still wouldn't mind turn-downs just for the slightly better noise level.

FAE is working on a solution and will e-mail me when they have one. I think the more people that contact them the more they will work on it.

[bblueg]

I will contact them tomorrow.
Understandably they need to know there is a market for their product.

I am hoping that it is something that befits the quality of nautique products. Not a 4th grade science project.

Just wait. There is a solution from a different source coming soon!

Like the 'sound' of that!

Thanks, Jeff.
