Engine stop lanyard switch
The lock-plate on the end of the lanyard
must be attached to the engine stop
switch for the engine to run. The lanyard
should be attached to a secure place on
the operator’s clothing, or arm or leg.
Should the operator fall overboard or
leave the helm, the lanyard will pull out
the lock plate, stopping ignition to the
engine. This will prevent the boat from
running away under power.
