2017 Limited S, which pee hole goes with which engine? As we were cruising back to our slip, I noticed one was flowing significantly less than the other (aft was low) and significantly hotter than the other. Boat was running fine all day, no overheat alarms. We’ll be pulling it out next weekend anyway. Wicked storm came in right after we docked so couldn’t troubleshoot on the water.

Anything to worry about absent any other symptoms?

I believe front is starboard and rear is port but you could start one engine and check to see which is which. I’d guess one of the intake screens in the pump might have some growth or something possibly clogging it. Is it just weaker at idle or even at higher RPMs?
 
Is it possible that your throttles weren't exactly the same RPM therefore not the same amount of water coming out of each pisser?

If you peek inside the rear storage compartment you can see the hoses connected to the pisser fittings. Follow the hose back of the offending weak pisser to see which engine it goes to. Below is a pic of my storage compartment and my pissers are different but should be the same area to follow them back to the engine(s). They should go directly across through a cutout in engine compartment side panel. You can stick your arm in the storage compartment and wiggle the hose back and forth while watching for it to move in the engine compartment.

RPMs were matched, in no-wake mode at 2K RPM. I hadn't looked at them earlier in the day, just happened to notice while I was putting fenders out (usually the wife does this, but she was driving back).
