I don't think the BEST baffles would be legal for J 1970 or J 2005. Typical logs and snails usually fail these standards. Having a baffle that is easy to see has satisfied the local law here in BHC. I have an auger type in one, and an X-type (?) in the Bassets. Get something that will pass the 'night stick' test. Both are wet headers.

What places don't?

2 that I know of:

1) 12 miles off the coast (International Waters)

2) A sanctioned racing event/regatta.

Its selective enforcement, many have "gotten away " with it, some won't.

Where I boat at, I won't 'push my luck' (at last count 6 LEO agencies patrol the river)

  All places require a certain DB rating for the most part.  It really depends on where you are at and what you are doing.  A few places just starting it up will get you in trouble.  Some of the guys run the fake baffles down at Martinez and it seems to keep them out of trouble.  At the lower river they have made mention but never gave me a ticket.  Lake Ellsinore has been real good about it as far as I know.  Just know where you are and what you can do.  These places we have said are good  doesn't mean you can go by jonny law with your hair on fire and blowing his ear drums out.  I have heard a couple of Blue water trips ago a couple guys got tickets for running dry.  Maybe some could post a picture up of the fake baffles mine are at the river or I would.

I have a set of these on my SBC, with one 'disc' cut off, and the other two discs full of 1/2" holes:

And a set of these X-type by Rex Marine (top ones):

Here's some "Fake ones" (not a fake price):

A big part of it is attempting to comply, rather than ignoring the law.
Water helps a bit, too.
And not driving like a rental jet ski  :screwy:
