While activation of the lanyard stop switch will stop the engine
immediately, a boat will continue to coast for some distance
depending upon the velocity and degree of any turn at shut down.
However, the boat will not complete a full circle. While the boat is
coasting, it can cause injury to anyone in the boat's path as
seriously as the boat would when under power.

We strongly recommend that other occupants be instructed on
proper starting and operating procedures should they be required
to operate the engine in an emergency (e.g. if the operator is
accidentally ejected).
!
WARNING
Should the operator fall out of the boat, the possibility of serious
injury or death from being run over by the boat can be greatly
reduced by stopping the engine immediately. Always properly
connect both ends of the stop switch lanyard to the stop switch
and the operator.
!
WARNING
Avoid serious injury or death from deceleration forces resulting
from accidental or unintended stop switch activation. The boat
operator should never leave the operator's station without first
disconnecting the stop switch lanyard from the operator.
Accidental or unintended activation of the switch during normal
operation is also a possibility. This could cause any, or all, of the
following potentially hazardous situations:
