AQ 280 305 chevy exhaust at idle coming out near transom

[riverrat1961]

I'm new to this so please be kind. Exhaust on this boat seems to be coming out near the transom and not the cavitation opening. Is this normal or do I have a problem. I know that outboards have a bypass for exhaust gases at low speeds. Does the Volvo penta use the same principle? Thanks

There are 2 rubber hoses that allow water/exhaust out close to the transom.
