It is unfortunate that a handful of folks here just can't seem to act like adults when they post.....

It should have reminded people of what the lanyard kill switch is for, and what can happen if not used. Lakesrider mentioned the lanyard early on, and how even that isn't 100% apparently.

Skip, I agree with you 100%

I agree.
It is a shame that the off-topic posts in this thread caused it to be moved to the Lake Issues sub-forum.
There is a very valuable lesson to be learned from this incident, and that is to always wear a lanyard. More people need to use theirs, and now that this thread is in the Lake Issues sub-forum, fewer people will become aware of the safety issue.

Well how about this. Those that entered into the banter away from the topic, delete those posts.

Then see if Don moves it back to where it belongs. Deal?
