Bill would allow 'switchable exhausts' on boats

[NHBUOY]

...did not check Corsa, but that sounds wrong...all you're really doing is diverting the exhaust through the stock Y-tube out the lower-unit...switching at high RPM's is a NO-NO tho...

NHBUOY;

Here is Corsa's

I think we are saying the same thing...

My point being A.P.S. is stating that he is hearing all these boats switching from quiet to silent while underway and that is simply is not true and can't happen! These exhausts are only being used when at docks or coming in and out of port or in coves or no wake areas that is the ONLY time they are beneficial.

Using any type of switchable exhaust at an engine RPM higher than what the mfr recommends may cause the internal flapper to break or an excessive water amount too close to the exhaust port... this can potentially cause reversion! Reversion (water being ingested into the engine via the exhaust valve due to camhaft profile) usually equals catastrophic engine failure....

Glad to see everyone is checking the websites to prove aps is blowing smoke! I challenge him earlier for a lively race on the road course at Loudon. So far he talks Beemers in FL. From the look of reviews in the car enthisiast magazines, I'm inviting my son in law and his Audi all road for breakfast!

1) Maybe those were the intentions of SBONH—made for public consumption...but In Reality—I think not!

1) Once again, a collection of false premises is trying to support "the impossible". (See 2 ).

2) I never stated "switching" occurred at high RPMs.

3) Saturday, I had an independent witness as a guest—an engineer—who witnessed the same impossible thing.

To quote your signature on another forum: Location: Wolfeboro (½-year) Florida (the rest). Last time I checked Ice in didn't last 6 months, if you want to play semantics.

Beemers are the motorcycles: Bimmers are the automobiles.

Like getting those "Grown-Ups" who already had Switchable Exhaust to stop playing with their exhaust racket when people are in their residences?

When you can't fix stupid—maybe educate them?

Just like I wouldn't say that BP will never have a NWZ, I wouldn't say that the lake never had ice for 6 months straight.

There are times when I'm the only person taking pictures in Winnipesaukee's ice from an outboard boat...

...the only boat in Lake Winnipesaukee.

Last week, my independent brain surgeon friend who plays for the Red Sox on his time off witnessed me shoot an 80 at Ridgewood. For reference, an 80 for me is pretty darn close to impossible.

"You're not here 24/7."

Actually during the months of July and August I am and very soon I will be here 24/7 ! Until then three days a week will have to suffice.
