They tested my boat at the time they passed the noise law. What happened then was they will test the db at idle from the Glendale dock to determine whether or not I should have the WOT test. What was comical is to see the LEO stick his baton up the exhaust to see how far it will go. Obviously you will hit the water baffler before anything else.

At Timber Island one officer will be near shore with a DB meter. Another officer rode with me as I do a WOT pass by the MP boat approximately 200 feet from the boat. I passed and they gave me a piece of paper to take with me in case I get pulled over.

Today, I'm not sure if they test at WOT, as the speed limit is 45. Do they test at WOT or at 45? Most boats do not reach 45.
