I'm gonna hafta disagree on this one. If it's annoying, cut it off. But if you're on a 36,000 acre lake, a long way from the boat ramp, it's gettin dark, and there's an Uh-Oh (motor won't crank)......or family emergency........or a real popular one; call the wife or someone to come get your truck/trailer and take it to a ramp you can load on, because the one you launched at now has 4' swells riding up on it, and a sunk boat is due to happen, at least here on this lake...........Several reasons to have that handy little booger.....yeah, mine's gonna be with me, but like it was said, it lays on the deck out of the way.
If I Ain't Crappie Fishin', I'm Thinkin' About It............
