Default advice

Brand new to the forum, and still looking for my first boat . I have been looking for a Mariaha , as advised by a friend of mine, who, just so happens to own one.
Looking for a Z202 or Z212 with a 5.7 litre, with captains call exhaust. I saw this one on CL. https://littlerock.craigslist.org/boa/4978134757.html
Did that exhaust come from the factory or do you think somebody put that on later? Thanks for any input.

    I would guess that is after market, it says in the ad, not captains call or choice, its just straight through. I don't think Mariah built them that way.

    Cant say Ive ever seen an exhaust like that! By Custom Im assuming they mean a couple feet of exhaust hose and two tips. Pretty interesting.

    I don't believe that's factory captains call.

    Mariah would never configure the exhaust like that, or offer the boat without Captain's Call. This definitely isn't the most well thought out system. Cuts around the fiberglass engine cover look pretty bad too. Plus a whale tail too?

    Well the exhaust may not be factory, but it doesn't look that bad. The bad part is that it will be loud all the time since it is not a silent choice system.

    So if you don't mind it being loud all the time then give it a deeper look.
