Update on the exhaust water leak...
Sent some pictures into Centerpointe Marine as they have some experienced mechanics on older Tiaras. He had me pull off the fiberglass exhaust cap, clean all the old sealant off and then it was apparent where the water was coming through. I thought the exhaust tube and the hull were one solid piece. The fiberglass exhaust tube is installed into a hole in the hull, then sealed on the outside and glassed over from the inside. Cleaned it down to the gelcoat and resealed it up with 3M4200 and he claims it should last another 20 years!
Really appreciated the help from those guys, hope this helps others...
