any word on the final outcome on this???
this is from the SJRA for conroe -->
(10) Operate a motor-powered vessel on the waters of the Reservoir without an exhaust water manifold with water running through it or a tractor-type muffler installed and in use on the engine.
(11) Operate any vessel anywhere on the reservoir in a manner to create a nuisance from unnecessary exhaust noise.
In particular:
(a) The operator of a vessel equipped with a through-hull or surface exhaust must use the subsurface exhaust mode, if so equipped, when operating inside of any “NO WAKE†zone, or within 100 feet of any shoreline or shoreline structures, and
(b) Any vessel with through-hull or surface exhaust that is not equipped with an alternative subsurface exhaust may only operate at idle engine speed, when operating inside of any “NO WAKE†zone, or within 100 feet of any shoreline or shoreline structures, with no unnecessary revving of engines.
