A marine propulsion device is provided. The device includes an engine, a driveshaft that is caused to rotate by the engine, a cowling system, a gearcase that supports a propulsor for imparting a propulsive force in a body of water, and a cooling water circuit that conveys cooling water that exchanges heat with the engine. The cooling water circuit includes an engine dump hose that extends from a first end to a second end. The first end is coupled to a cooling water outlet of the engine. The cooling water circuit further includes an egress component configured to discharge the cooling water from the device along a discharge trajectory parallel to a plane that bisects the device into a port side and a starboard side. The egress component extends through one or more components of the cowling system and is coupled to the second end of the engine dump hose.
