Nice shots of the boat! John must have some type of muffler system. He came through Sunset Cove and I barely heard him and nearly missed seeing him at all. Kind if thought you'd hear him before you saw him with those engines.

No mufflers, the turbos do quiet it down, but at an idle the exhaust is underwater under the bussel. Thanks for the complements, it's been a two year process, but worth it for such a capable machine.
