Guys, I know a lot of you are running Yanmars. There is a guy on the Mainship website making SS exhaust elbows if any one is interested. Here is a copy of his post.

Danny, I am making these units. I just put two on my boat and they
work great. I did not mess around with thin SS material as it will not
last long. I had a riser made for my 200 Mitsubisi in my MS1 and they
used material the thickness of car exhaust pipe charged me $875 for it.
It lasted 6 years. My stuff is machined on a lathe and made of 3/8"
material for the flanges and .120 " Sch 10 on the tubing. These things
will outlast us. I have a unit with pics on Ebay. Take a look at it.
If your interested call me at 919-846-0999. My old risers were the
factory original cast iron. Worn so bad they where blocking water flow
and just about ready to start dumping water into the turbo. Engine temp
dropped 20 Degrees on both engines after I installed the elbows.
