If the point where the cooling water is injected into the exhaust is less than 15 cm above the waterline, then when the engine is stopped, there is a risk that cooling water will siphon into the exhaust system and subsequently into the engine it self. Such siphoning may be prevented by fitting a Vetus air vent at least 40 cm above the waterline.
