Avoid Common Boating Mistakes

Saw this on reddit, and thought it was some good information. We accidently hit the lanyard on the killswitch of our Tahoe one time when going out on the Ohio River during transport. It wasn't obvious, all looked normal but the kill switch was just a little down causing it to activate.

The key thing I learned is that when the kill switch is activated (at least on that boat) you didn't get the warning beep when you turned the key on. The motor would turn over, just not start. Took us a solid 10 minutes to figure out what the issue was.
