How to soundproof a Bayliner Boat

The Bayliner is a great boat for cottagers, fishermen and boating enthusiasts. However, anyone who has spent any amount of time in the boat knows that the Bayliner’s engine is loud. The noise is a result of limited sound deadening in the engine by and increased vibrations, resulting from a basic quality-built boat.

As discussed in the Bayliner Forum: Soundproofing my engine bay boat owners are looking for soundproofing options. At B-Quiet Sound Deadening boat owners will find a variety of products that can help insulate and dampen boat noise without adding a lot of extra weight.
