[QUOTE="JayKay, post: 245922, member: 324"] I live in Bismarck, and spend a fair amount of time on the water. In the summer there is a LOT of boating traffic in town, and I know better than to try to have peace and quiet and fish it. Sound travels well over water, of course. I'd bet $500 that the main complaint is loud music. Late fall and early spring, of course there's no problem. And I doubt that this is about jetskis, or 250hp Opti's. I would bet money its about the guy driving his pontoon down the river at 1 AM, covered in LED lights, with his music thumping. I see it nearly every night, early fall, north of town. Or, even better, the guy who parks his pontoon in the middle of Marina Bay, or other bays, with his subs bumping, at 1 or 2 or later, in the morning. I totally get that the people who live on the river don't own the river. But if some jackwagon parked his car in front of my house, windows down and bass thumping, at 1AM, I'd be mad. I don't own the street, but common courtesy (and loud-laws that already exist) ought to have some weight for people with loud music. Right? I believe it's illegal to mow your lawn at 1AM. Or till your garden. I think people give snow blowers a pass, since they're more of a necessary evil. For the record, when I was younger, I loved my VERY loud music. Eh? What's that you say?
