I love the sound too, but I suppose if every boat on the lake was above the 82db it would not be very pleasant. We had a 1992 boat we got in 1991. We drove it for years and never got stopped until '03 and were invited to go out to Timber Island. We weren't sure how loud it was, so had some work done to it before we went out but we flunked. After trying this and trying that, and about four Sunday morning trips out to Timber, we finally passsed. It was about $8000. later. I think we had to practically have the engine pulled out to finally fix it.
We still have the boat, but don't use it a lot. I love it, it is still my favorite boat and still love the sound although it is not as loud, of course. We also carry the paper in it, but have never been stopped again.
