Uuugh, Again, I don't have a charging problem. It works just fine. I was just curious about quieting a free generator. Will definitely look into the isolator before spring.
My wife would have beat me across the head if she caught me engineering a hose to the exhaust of a generator and having it blow the water and sounding like bong rips from college. The guy side of me wants to try it out and design a cool quick release hose system that would accomplish this feat using aerospace technology, but in the end you're still just
that guy on the dock who duct taped a piece of garden hose to his generator cause he was too cheap to buy a quiet one.
That being said, the highest rated rubber/plastic based pipe around is only good to 500*f. You would have to make said pipe out of metal to avoid burning your boat down after it has time to heat up (and not just make a video). That or design a heat sink/aftercooler setup to first cool the exhaust in the working range of the pipe. Boat engines use water.
