You are correct. Below 1800 or 2000 RPMS.
This will not solve the problems 100%, but it could definately quiet down the docks and channels if it were allowed. I believe people should be able to have it as long as when it is not activated you still would pass the current sound standards.
I peronsonally would use mine all the time starting the boat... I have a 2 year old and my wife gets pretty ticked at me when I start her up during my son's nap time.
