I have 3 a/c units. Are there 3 water streams exiting the boat? Or is there just 1?

I believe 3. usually one pump supplies water to all units and they each have a separate discharge.
Keep in mind many changes could have occurred since 1989.
Are you having a problem?

There are 3. One is forward off of the starboard bow down near the water level. The other two exit into and then out of both port and starboard exhaust boxes (same place your engines exhaust). You won't see them squirting out but you will hear them trickle. Hope this helps.

Mine has one discharge at the bow on the starboard side close to the water line. The other two dump on the aft starboard side right at the water line under the chine so you can barely hear or see it which is a great feature IMO. Hate sleeping next to a boat that has a stream of water coming on every 30 minutes.
I've got the version with three exhaust holes on port and starboard sides of the hull. Don't know if there were different builds other than that for this vintage.

Thanks! I believe this helps us. Guess we were missing the other 2 because we couldn't see them. Really appreciate the help.

Do you have the same setup with the three holes on both sides of the hull at the aft end?

I didn't think I had them either. My dock mate made me get in the water right beside the exhaust ports and witness with my ears the trickle. He was right.

Interesting. My boat originally did not have ac and then 3 were installed. All three systems have thru hulls, in a column on port side aft just forward of the engine room bilge thru Hull and exhaust port. They even made the run from foward to aft for the foward system... which I think was horrible. I can’t imagine the original set up of the other cabin and aft stayers running into the xhaust. If someone has a photo or two of that plus where the forward ac one is, it would be much appreciated.
