Yeah...quite an impressive piece of machinery! Especially when Austin forgets to charge it overnight and Magic Medicine's Sunsation is attached to the front towing it in. I fell in 50 degree Lake Michigan trying to help pull it into a slip at Hammond....he thanked me and said he'd give me a ride later this summer...he has since idled past me 3 times in the Playpen downtown Chicago....short memory I guess!

The boat is louder on board; i dont think it is a concern with the DNR or Sheriff because it does not make much noise from a distance.[/QUOTE]
I'd like to see them hold a sound meter behind those 16 inch exhaust openings. It might get a little hot trying to keep it within the sound level test procedure rules. I don't think they will mess with you. Basically, no way to do the test.

They can do the test. It gets measured from either side 3.3' back and 4-5' above the water. You would be plenty clear of the exhaust. It would not pass, but I don't think they will mess with it. They will be to busy saying "WOW". They passed by a sheriff leaving the cove and both cops did the jaw drop stare.

LOL Usually Austin has soo many hot chicks in thong bikinis laying all over his boat, there's not a cop in his right mind that would even "think" about giving him a stupid "noise" ticket.

Austin, give me a call about that, I believe I've got a guy that can take care of that for you.
Are you running a 25-30% gas mixture in it?? You should be.
