The switches are really great, in many years of boating, only pulled it once (as I went overboard) But DO NOT give them to passengers. If you happens to come out, and you coast away about 1/4 mile, you'll need to go back and rescue them. While you're fumbling around looking for the cap to restart, you may loose you're overboard passenger.

ps; it doesn't matter how much they cost, if you save someone life it will be the cheapest accessory you ever buy!

All the switch does is break the run wire coming off the ignition switch, thats why it will crank but wont fire with the switch pulled.

Thanks for the information!!

I just bought one from here http://www.boatfix.com/ It was under $20 as I recall. It is sitting here on my table. Now if I could only get the boat back from the mechanic, I could install it.
