When it
comes to the subject of maximum performance, you either understand

it,
or you don't. Have you ever watched the things that car racing guys

do
to pick up an additional few MPH?

We know all about it. But, if you drove most race cars on the street,

you'd
be ticketed or arrested, even if just for the noise some of them make.
That's why there are race tracks.

Race cars, for the most part, are not street legal. There are stock
classes which are, and there would be no problem.



The same thing goes for the guys on
water.

What they do offshore is their business.

Until you decide to fish offshore. Then the noise would "bother" you
again.


Ummm....no. Then I realize I'm in their territory, and accept the
consequences, just as I'd accept that I might have to stay out of the way

of
an oil tanker. This is not the same as a penis-boat child choking his
chicken by buzzing repeatedly around a quiet cove. Then, he's in the

wrong
territory.


Ah! So who has the right to decree that the cove was "your territory"
and that offshore was "his"?

If you had two toddlers taking naps in their strollers in a public park, who
says I shouldn't crank up a boom box 5 feet from them?
