ABSTRACT:
An exhaust control for an internal combustion engine powering a watercraft is disclosed. The exhaust control includes an exhaust manifold connected to the engine and having a passage therethrough leading from an exhaust passage extending from a combustion chamber within the engine. An exhaust pipe, preferably in the form of an expansion pipe, extends from the exhaust manifold for leading the exhaust to a discharge. The exhaust pipe is connected to the engine, preferably with a number of brackets. A catalyst is positioned within the portion of the exhaust pipe which is connected to the engine. In a preferred arrangement the manifold extends towards the front end of the engine and the expansion pipe extends therefrom towards the rear of the engine through a valley formed by the engine and an induction system thereof.
