Looks like Gibson makes some clamp-ons that might do the trick...but the sound is why I own the boat...so now what's the point? such a dilema...

Mine can come on or off in 15 minutes. There are times when I am in areas where I have to be sensitive to noise and they are on and no problem. They work great. This weekend I am patrolling for OSS at the Toronto races and next weekend is the Lake Ontario Poker Run so noise will not be an issue and off they come. If you go with clamp on, think about drilling and bolting thru the tailpiece so you do not lose one. Would hate to see you or anyone mess up a
$ 3000.00 prop if one falls off. Good luck,
Bob

Re: So what do YOU do...?
What,s worse is the stupid questions like "what does one do for work to be be able to afford a boat like this" or " what does it cost ?"..... I have instucted my crew to reply that we don,t work and the boat cost about 1.2 million!. That usually shuts them up.... As far as the noise, it doesn,t pay here to be rude, the a$$wholes would probably vandalize the boat the next time they see it unattended!

Re: So what do YOU do...?
we actually had a guy ask if the boat had a jet drive too!... Like an idiot, I actually asked him what he was referring/pointing too and it seems he thought the exhaust was a jet drive...
