What I do find noisier is the planes coming in and out of the Laconia airport. There is more complaints now in the Gilford, Laconia area about the corporate jets that flys in and out of the airport. NASCAR weekends are notorious. Celebrities like Steven Tyler moved into the area and so do their jets.

As for the classic boats. My 1988 has the classic DARPA exhausts. I had to take the switch out when it became law. The reason why it is noisy around the docks and NWZ is because the exhaust requires water for silencing. At speed there is plenty of water to quiet it down. Around the docks less water flow creates more noise. I use to switch to the underwater I/O exhaust at low speed. Then switch back at high speed. No longer.

' NOISE ' is everywhere! Folks are up for enjoyment these days, however, ' The Shut Up Crowd Is On The Rise '! The new aircraft designs are to mount the engines Over the wings to reduce the noise level on the ground.

One thing that we can count on is, Life is all about Noise, take a stand and get used to it!... If you take the time and get it, sound is half the fun!

Think about the sound of loons!... Now, if the earth was meant to be quiet, wouldn't you miss the Lake's point?


Folks need to get'along over here! 'Try To Make It Happen '!!!!
