The Alabama Code states quite clearly use of a cut out exhaust is illegal. However, having one on a boat is legal. It is interesting to note that the muffled sound must be reasonable. That seems like a vague term for sound.

Section 33-5-23

Muffling devices and sirens.

(a) The exhaust of every internal combustion engine used on any vessel shall be effectively muffled by equipment so constructed and used as to muffle the noise of the exhaust in a reasonable manner. The use of cutouts is prohibited, except for vessels competing in a regatta or official boat race, and for such vessels while on trial runs.
