Hi Mike! Haven't seen you in over a year, hope all is well.
Secret Plans has an Espar with the exhaust out the transom, it is angled
sufficiently that I have absolutely no concerns about drainage, it has
worked flawlessly since 2010. I've got it tucked up high as I could and
still get a 12" upward hump in the exhaust hose (and maintain clearance
from the hull). Boat is at BBYC on the hard for another 10 days if you
want a look, you've got my OK to climb up. Don't steal the rum.
My fitting doesn't have an elbow, it is welded up on an angle. Like this

Wondering if anyone on this list has installed a forced air heater
with the exhaust thru hull on a reverse transom?
The thru hull I purchased can be seen has an elbow to force the
exhaust hose into an upward loop but with a reverse transom there is
potential for water to build up at this elbow joint.
Has anyone experience with this and how it is typically resolved?
Thanks
