I noticed that one side flows more than the other on both motors out the exhaust. I only ran it once before it was witerized. will see more this summer when i start running it. Did anyone notice this about there boats or should they flow evenly. As far as a iknow its only at idle but i only ran it once and noticed this in the yard. Everything runs fine otherwise.

More than likely your sea water pump impeller is going bad.Change both they are not hard and you can order the parts from bammarine.com.Also get the lube to put on them so they don't start dry.

Dish soap works as well for assembly lube...I agree, sounds like a impeller might be goin south.......
