A marine engine includes a cylinder block having first and second banks of cylinders disposed along a longitudinal axis and extending transversely relative to each other in a V-shape so as to define a valley there between, and first and second exhaust logs in which exhaust gas from the first and second banks of cylinders are collected and conveyed. An exhaust manifold is located in the V-shape and configured to merge said exhaust gases from the first and second exhaust logs and to convey said exhaust gases. The exhaust manifold has a first inlet port that receives substantially all said exhaust gas from the first exhaust log and a second exhaust inlet port that receives substantially all said exhaust gas from the second exhaust log. The first and second inlet ports are longitudinally offset relative to each other.
