    Default Why you should wear a kill switch


    This is not my video. I saw it on YouTube and it was on Lake Seminole last week. The guy is very lucky to be alive.

    He stood up to walk to the front of the boat (to get his phone) while the boat was on plane, kill switch is a very important tool but I'm afraid it can't fix stupid.

    There are alot of stupid idiots that shouldn't even be in a boat, much less own one, on the water.

    You got that right. If you’re on the water during a high school or college green fish tournament it’s like playing dodgeball.

    Mom and Dad both had to get their Coast Guard approved operators license because of the boat they took customers fishing on with the fishing resort (Fish Haven) on the Osage river below Bagnell dam.That was in the
    late 60's.Bagnell Dam is on the lower end of LOZ. Any how the point is I grew up on the river and have always been completely comfortable day or night on any body of water.A few years ago I had a near death
    experience in a boat on the water......It has been a very easy transition for me to wear a life jacket and kill switch every since.There have been multiple reports of boats at high speed ejecting passengers,the steering wheel spins left or right ,the boat circles and runs them over........Please enjoy your time on the water and also wear your PFD and kill switch.

    ...and just that quick the whole world can change to an emergency. This should be a wake up call for anyone who operates a boat.
    Thanks for posting a very valuable safety tip.
