Re: hot foot install question
For the average boat, I agree and would go a step further and categorize them as being unsafe.
But, in specialized performance boats, drag boats, hydros, the application fits.
There are times you want both hands on the wheel as much as possible.
I have a dead man's throttle on my hydro, another device you don't want on the average runabout. But again, the application makes sense.
Although no one has bothered to ask, my guess is that Benny is not throwing this in a 24' cuddie cabin Searay.
