....Actually, the newer colemans ARE quieter
Mine (~2KW) says it has 60-80Db
(...I DO talk to things...part of getting old.
DON'T do it...OLD, that is....)
Normal conversation is rated at ~60, and mine
runs mostly at near-idle...
....ONLY had good comments...no things thrown
or spraypaint on my hull yet. :-)

From my experience, living in an anchorage, those boats with Coleman or
other cheap portable gen/sets, weren't very popular with anyone within a
1/4 mile.

Pay the extra and get a quiet, reliable Honda and you and your neighbors
will be more happy..
