[QUOTE="Johnny, post: 385214, member: 13599"] near New Smyrna Beach, Florida (not too far from me) on the 5:00 news, a 47 year old man was in his 14' Carolina Skiff not far from his private dock at his home. According to witnesses, his boat was going slow when he fell out some how and had his hands on the side of the boat trying to climb back in when the boat circled around and ran over him, he died from his injuries. this is only a FOURTEEN foot center console boat !!! so many things could have saved his life. Kill switch comes to mind. But, if you step back to do something with the motor, it doesn't come into play. So many things can turn bad in the blink of an eye. As of yet, nobody has said why he took his boat out as he was not fishing. possibly doing some maintenance and just doing a test run...... don't know yet. sad sad sad be careful out there boys n girls !!!
