Love that boat! Congrats! Saw it in Key West when it was new. I believe it was one of, if not the, first with silent exhaust. At night the interior is killer when lights are on!
Looks like pipes were added? Is it switchable now?

I hope Nor-Tech received some sort of compensation. I know my set up was not exactly the same, due to being a V... but it was close, and from now on, I'll set up all my boats that way. It's loud enough on plane , silent around the docks, and at 60mph you can still hold a relatively quiet conversation behind the windscreen. Thanks for talking me into it Terry.

It has the pipes on it now - I know, I put them there. It takes more time to install the carbon fiber covers over the holes than to switch the pipes from loud to quiet.....

Not anymore, when I first got the boat it had the straight exhaust installed. After one Run I knew that I had to install the silent exhaust immediately. The boat was so loud you could barely have a conversation at idle and under power it felt like your ears were going to bleed. The silent exhaust is the only way to go. I could not believe how much quieter and more comfortable the boat was when It got installed. No one should order a boat without it... Thank you Nortech for coming up with such a great idea
