My boat would most definitely pass all Winni noise laws and I am delighted about this fact. I have a 2001 Donzi Classic boat and nothing has been done to alter the sound to make it louder or quieter. Some see the throaty sound of an engine (boat, car, motorcycle) as heavenly while others see it as annoying. I am a professional musician and in general I prefer noise to silence. Some of my favorite 'noises' on the lake are the sound of the V8 in my boat, the sound of my paddle entering the water from my canoe, the sound of my sail boat's hull as it works it's way through the chop.

My 'ear plugs' remark was meant in jest because to me people's negative remarks about high performance boats is getting old on this site. If you do not like the 'noise' and you are anywhere on Lake Winni then you are in the wrong place. High performance boats, classic woodies, sea planes, motorcycles are all here to stay and to me that is a good thing.
