About the Cover

Boating at the lake soon may include cleaner air, thanks to a team of engineers at Southwest Research Institute who designed and tested catalytic marine exhaust systems for pleasurecraft. The team demonstrated that the systems not only are safe and durable, but they also can reduce emissions of hydrocarbons and oxides of nitrogen.
