The MI testing method and what not was discussed pretty good in this thread. :(

He can make a phone call if he needs someone to talk to. :violent-smiley-021:

AS an FYI i was sound checked at Higgins lake this past weekend and they let me go at 97 db but the next day was told they gave out 4 tix for excessive noise.

Saw this yesterday too...

i think everyone with 5 inch dry exhaust should raft up in front of Bill Henne's house and bounce their engines off the rev limiters a few times

I want to call up the police and compliment the area for all the cool loud boats that are here. Tell them we come to this area just for that reason. It only takes one guy complaining to stop the cool boats that men women and children find so amazing. No reason calls shouldnt come in to compliment the loud boats

A Radio Shack dB meter!!?? Can you even calibrate that thing. I would question that immediately if pulled over.

I always wonder when they say have boaters use silent choice how we are suppose to do that and not damage the motors.

This year going dry exhaust...going to be loud!

From the news article:

"So the biggest thing we want to do is educate boaters," (Lt./Sheriff Dept.) Richards said. "Let them know if they are over or under the limit."

In some cases, he said, boaters may be requested to close their "flap exhaust," which is designed to reduce noise.



I can think of a couple people that need to close their exhaust flaps, namely Bill Henne and Nancy Ferguson.
If I drive by their homes and their faces annoy me, will the local constabulary make them put paper bags over their heads?
