Abstract
An exhaust muffler for marine engines comprises a cylindrical container arranged to be mounted with its longitudinal axis horizontal and traverse to the longitudinal axis of the engine. The container forms an expansion chamber, which is closed at one or both ends by an end piece (23) depending of whether it is used on engines with one or two rows of cylinders. The end piece has an inlet (26) and an outlet (27) for exhaust gas and intermediate flow diverting baffles (50,51).
