Silencers

The engine of a motor boat shall not be operated in the harbour unless such engine shall, to the satisfaction of the Harbour Master, be fitted with a silencer, muffler or other device suitable and sufficient for reducing the noise which would otherwise be caused by the escape of the exhaust gases from the engine into the atmosphere, and the said gases shall not be allowed to escape into the atmosphere without first passing through such silencer, muffler, or other device as aforesaid. The person in charge of a motor boat contravening this regulation Harbours and Merchant Shipping 45 shall be liable to a fine of five dollars for the first offence and to a fine not exceeding fifteen dollars for each subsequent offence.
