    I have a Tige with the same exhaust flange, just wondering how you plan to attach the fitting to it? Thanks

    I am considering screwing it to the flapper flange but haven't done it yet. I think a 4" schedule 40 coupling fits perfectly. I might use a rubber fernco fitting instead of screws.

    Then add a brace to the swim platform.

    This is what I rigged up for my 2nd attempt. 

     

    Since the soft eshaust hose is about $20 a foot and I have to order it, I'm trying to use the pvc stuff to attach it. The 3" pvc fits snug over my existing 3" flange. I added a few set screws to keep it on. IMG_7551.thumb.JPG.fa930642fb4a420bb4068ceae86613ed.JPG

    then I double clamped on the flex coupling. IMG_7556.thumb.JPG.b8b04b25f9f7472f4471876e54e1a7b1.JPG

     

    im hoping this works. Also I changed the tip to this one

    i heated the pipe pipe with a heat gun and clamped it in to shape. Once it cooled off I cut a 45* on the end

     

     

    *****edit: I added some rivets through the hose clamps for good measure. But this design worked, stayed on and there was significantly less spray with the shapes pipe then before. 

    Why did you use a rubber flex fitting after having the coupling already attached with screws?

    Is this incase a hard strike so it will come off?

    Where do you get a T fitting like that?
