When the boat was moving away from us the sound was deafening for WELL OVER a Mile. This went on for 45 minutes,..Up and down..up and down. Makes a Jet Ski playing look like childs play.

What's up with that...?? Is this acceptable?? I have not seen any posts about this practice. Where is the Kayaking Crowd on this topic? NB
We heard that boat too, it sure was noisy from far away.
