The Environmental Protection agency (EPa)
standards state that in freshwater lakes, freshwater
reservoirs or other freshwater impoundments
whose inlets or outlets are such as to prevent the
ingress or egress by vessel traffic subject to this
regulation, or in rivers not capable of navigation by
interstate vessel traffic subject to this regulation,
marine sanitation devices certified by the U.S. Coast
guard installed on all vessels shall be designed
and operated to prevent the overboard discharge
of sewage, treated or untreated, or of any waste
derived from sewage. The EPa standards further
state that this shall not be construed to prohibit
the carriage of Coast Guard-certified flow-through
treatment devices which have been secured so
as to prevent such discharges. They also state
that waters where a Coast Guard certified marine
sanitation device permitting discharge is allowed
include coastal waters and estuaries, the great
lakes and interconnecting waterways, freshwater
lakes and impoundments accessible through
locks, and other flowing waters that are navigable
interstate by vessels subject to this regulation (40
CfR 140.3).

your boat comes with a choice of different exhaust
systems. Below is a description of the standard and
optional systems on your 245 Performance.
Thru-Hub Exhaust (standard): Thru-hub exhaust
propellers consist of a round barrel to which the
blades are attached. The exhaust passes through
the barrel and out the back, without making contact
with the blades. This provides a good clean
water flow to the blades, usually resulting in good
acceleration and hole shot.
CorsaTM Performance Quick & Quiet II (option):
a full time, non-switchable, thru-hull exhaust system
that uses patented silencer Tips with a pair of upper
exhaust splitters connected to the lower wishbone
and the exhaust riser.
CorsaTM Performance Quick & Quiet Plus
(option): an electronically operated exhaust
diverter used in conjunction with the same silencer
Tips of the Quick & Quiet II system, but with the
added flexibility to switch the exhaust flow to fully
silenced, thru-prop operation. The switch is used to
change the exhaust exits, either thru-prop or thru-
hull, which will provide maximum performance or
minimum exhaust sound.
Many areas regulate noise limits. Even if there
are no laws, courtesy demands that boats operate
quietly.
