Generator noise
Has anyone been successful in using something to help quite the noise your generator makes? Mine is onboard in a compartment. I'm thinking along the lines of a sound dampening blanket or something.

I recently built a generator noise reduction box for my Honda EU2000i that was based on a similar design by forum member jauguston that proved to be very effective in minimizing generator noise. For reasons of economy I used Reflectix I already had on hand to line my box and while it did serve the purpose there's no question the results would have been even better had I used a purpose designed material such as this noise control barrier available from marine supply stores such as West Marine. Since you're not actually building a box but merely wanting to improve an existing generator enclosure I'd suggest this is the type of product you should consider using.
