I think noise is really all relative.....

Up in the section of the lake where he was hanging out its usually very quiet... even more so towards evening hours. the AMBIENT NOISE LEVEL (ANL) is usually very low, especially this time of year (early in the boating season). So a boat with thru hull exhaust is def going to stand out even if he is perfectly legal!

This week (Bike week) in the Weirs the ANL is soo loud you could prob fire up a drag boat with open exhaust and not hear it above the din of motorcycles & people!

I think we all just need get along.... there is no right to peace and quiet!
