Wet versus dry exhaust

All hands--

Milt Baker, a participant in this forum, and his wife, Judy, have a
Nordhavn 47 on order. They have launched a thorough site about the
boat, their plans and progress toward their goals:

http://www.bluewaternav.com

Interestingly, the Bakers have specified a wet exhaust on their boat.
Bluewater will be the first such Nordhavn 47 built.

I invite Milt to outline his reasons for selecting a wet exhaust. His
response will hopefully initiate a discussion about the pros and cons
of wet and dry systems for passagemaking.
