Nice to see the Mount back at the Weirs where she belongs. Let the season begin!

....ayuh .....saw it very silently glide past Buoy FL-3 a couple hours ago probably enroute from Centre Harbor to Weird Beach ...... so whatever happened to the Mount's iconic chug-a-lug-a-lug sound that it used to make as it chugged past.......it no longer makes a chug-chug-chug sound.......now it makes more of a buzzzzzzz type of sound ....and it just ain't the same since it got two new engines a few years back......I want it to go back to that 70- year long..... chug-a-lug sound......chug-chug-chug.....too bad that Caterpillar could not have included a chug-chug-chug sound designed into their million dollar, federal government, cash-for-clunkers, two-new-engine replacement grant!

I agree, I think they should simply "pipe-in" the old sound it made. I miss it when I'm taking my afternoon nap and could hear it go by.

I was thinking I was sad to see it leave Center Harbor. Then I remembered it moved because we had ice out and now we can boat all over the lake. Yippee!
