CD30 wet exhaust routing - looking for pics

[S/V Ethan Grey]

I am replacing the wet exhaust in my CD30 (Volvo MD7A) and was hoping someone had pictures of their wet exhaust routing. I have an aftermarket Vetus NLP45 waterlock and don't know what the original exhaust routing looked like. Thanks! -david

Hi David.

I'll get you some pics today or tomorrow. I believe that mine is all original.

Thanks Keith. Here are pics of my Vetus water lock and the exhaust as it’s routed to the transom exhaust. I haven’t connected the exhaust to the water lock yet as I don’t want to cut the hose until I’m confident in the routing. When I removed the old exhaust hose, it was a straight run from the engine area bulkhead, along the underside of the cockpit seats, and then a slight bend down to the exhaust flange. I am concerned this doesn’t provide enough protection from water pushed up through the exhaust flange. Sorry the photos are sideways, I don’t know how to fix that.

Was just wondering the same thing about my 33. If anyone has pics of the original 33 routing i'd be equally grateful.
