Mine does! Has anyone had experience with a jet ski playing music too loud? Driving questionably I've seen, for sure, but I've not been exposed to loud music on a ski.

Seriously? Go stand by the side or on the bridge over the Weirs
Channel for an hour. Many inconsiderate people, some on jet skis, passing by with very loud music.

While you are there you can enjoy the loudspeaker system at Thurston's. "Parts, you have a call holding on line 2". Their speakers are aimed off their property across the Channel. They were asked years ago to just turn the speakers around so they aimed into their property instead of off of their property and they refused to make any changes.

Too many people with self centered attitudes and no consideration for others.

Hmmmm...that's too bad. I guess I'm sensitive to not being "part of the problem."

THAT being said, today at West Alton sandbar, some boat was playing music WAYYYY too loudly. It was a quiet early afternoon until a black pontoon pulled up and, and I mean this literally, played music so loud that even 100' away I could hardly hear my guests. We had to move. So obnoxious.

Did you ask them to turn it down? Some people actrally respond to such requests. Sounds like they are disturbing the peace. Maybe not enough for a fine, but perhaps enough for MP to get them to turn down the volume. Lots of other options, none legal, I guess.

A couple boats near them made an issue of it, and they actually turned it up louder for a while. When they turned it back "down," it was as loud as before.

When we got off-axis and behind the line of boats between us and them, it wasn't as bad, but the people behind them and the houses on shore were majorly disrupted.
