It is clear that the noise generated by these boats wouldn't make it a half
mile down the normal highway.

But, for some unknown reason, it is tolerated on the waterways. It is only a
matter of time until these nuts get us all junked up with noise laws and
enforcement. Then, those of us with "normal" boats... can only idle all of
the way across the lake! They make the noise, and we, the general
(reasonable) boating population, gets the laws and enforcement because of
them...

I meandered down to the inlet where Irondequoit Bay meets
Lake Ontario. Every 30 seconds, one of these needle-dick boats came
blarping
through the inlet. Even at idle speed, it completely drowned out ALL
other
sound. I couldn't hear the guy standing 10 feet away from me, who was
yelling about why these dumb boats aren't illegal.


Out here we call those boats "Convertors" they convert money into noise.
