I never had a bakpak, but I know my remora was a little louder than my old Prizm Skimmer..... (but is MUCH, MUCH Better :) )

.....Give it time some time--after about 3 weeks your ears will "adjust" and you'll start noticing that Remora hissing....then it'll be time to install a D-I-Y "silencer"...;)


A DIY Silencer? I would love to see/hear about that.
 
Snowboarda--

Basically, the D-I-Y Silencer = folded, wet paper towel/washcloth* laid over top of the intake tube. (where the white, clean-out screw is)

It can dramtically reduce the hissing noise that comes from the little aeration chamber....

(*Actually, I use a sheet of thin packaging foam folded over 2-3 times--works like a charm! +the closed-cell foam is more "inert" than a washcloth/papertowel--IMO. :) )
