Exhaust Water Shutters
The Exhaust Water Shutters are located in the exhaust y-pipe. The shutters help prevent water from running back into the engine under certain circumstances.

If you have an older engine you might have the old 3-piece exhaust y-pipe. To replace the shutters in the old 3-piece style t-pipe the engine will have to be removed.

Newer y-pipes have the shutters located at the top of the pipe. The engine does not have to be removed to replace the newer style shutters. You will only have to remove the exhaust elbow from the manifold.

If your boat has direct tru-transom exhaust, your exhaust tips should have internal AND external shutters.
